The Lenny release is finished. See the Squeeze release goals for the next set of release goals.
Lenny Release Goals
The lenny release goals are actually listed at http://release.debian.org/lenny/goals.txt, but I found that page too weird to use in terms of "how can I contribute today", so I made this page with more useful links and information. The links are intentionally shaped to give useful information to an NMU-happy developer. For example, the list of bugs in unstable is primarily interesting for developers because that is where you would upload. The list of bugs in testing shows how many fixed packages still need to be helped into testing.
