Thanks for asking. Two things I can think of: (1) get your 
edit-build-unittest rig in good shape (e.g. do you know how to unittest 
only one module without unittesting anything else? it doubles your 
turnaround speed!), (2) think of a few good action items e.g. by 
thinking of opportunities for new code, or by browsing bugzilla.
