I know python and want to contribute on OpenSource projects that features python. Anyone can help me where to contribute and how.
I already googled it and find github and code.google as a good place to contribute but how to start it I don't know.
Suggest how to get started.

Not sure if this is an appropriate question for SO - you might get voted down. But ...
Whenever I have seen this question, the answer is almost always:
find a project you like / you're interested in
find something in that project that you feel you can fix / enhance (have a look through their bug tracker)
fork the project (github makes this easy)
make the change, find out what is appropriate for that project (documentation, unit tests, ...)
submit the change back to the project (github has "request pull")
Good luck!

I am learning Django.
I came across the term "contrib" but I don't know what it actually means
It obviously seems from the word "contribution" but why is it named like that?
Thank you
Contrib name is for software that has been contributed to the project,
but which might not actually be maintained by the core developers.
Naming it "contrib" or "Contrib" is a long-established convention, but
there's really nothing special about the name, and it's usually only
used by fairly large projects. Incase of Django it's a package that
contains some of the common functionality required by in web

I have a general question concerning "publishing" python code and referencing it later in my own PhD thesis. I hope someone can provide helpful thoughts about it.
My plan:
During my PhD time I have written several code snippets for time-frequency analysis. These are not large code projects, but snippets that provide functionalities, which are not included in the general scipy.signal package. In approximately 6 month I will hand in the thesis, so now I am thinking about what stuff to include in the thesis. If I include these snippets in my thesis I somehow thought it would be "cooler" to have them already "published" in any form instead of just putting the code in the appendix of the thesis. By doing so I might be able to write something like this in my thesis: The code for analysing the data_x_y is also available at ...
I would like to find the easiest way to accomplish this.
Thanks for any comments!
Publish the code on Github. You can optionally create a Python package, and publish that to PyPI.
Once it's on GitHub, you can get a free DOI for it using Zenodo. This will create a permanent record (including source code), and makes your code easily citable (both by yourself and others).

I just want to know if it's possible to use WHMCS with Django framework ?
Thank in advance !
Yes, it is most definitely possible, but your question lacks some clarity... Aside from the fact that everything is possible if you really put your mind to it (except time travel - I tried), you can use some of the libraries that nice people have written for nice people like you. Some examples:
https://github.com/jawr/django-whmcs
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pywhmcs/0.0.2
You will definitely run into problems with newer versions of WHMCS and Django since the libraries haven't been updated since the stone age - but you have something to build on. That often counts for more than you can expect.
But TL;DR (answer in the same style as the question): Yes.

I'd like to make a new toolbox for ArcGIS 10.
While I have found resources on making Python scripts and the like, I have not yet found any examples or documentation regarding making Toolboxes.
Could someone point me in the right direction? Examples of toolbox codes/setup are much appreciated.
Making a new (empty) toolbox is very easy.
Simply right click on a folder in the Catalog window and choose New | Toolbox.
This is described in the Online Help.
Once you have a toolbox you just right click on that to Add Script and follow the wizard. The help link above should lead you to documentation on all of that.
Pay particular attention to how you define parameters on the tool to correspond with your GetParameterAsText statements in the script.
If you get stuck the GIS Stack Exchange has many thousands of ArcPy Q&As.

The only references I can find state that it's theoretically possible to write iOS apps using python. Does anyone know of any examples of apps that were written this way?
Looks like the iOS PyObjC hasn't really been maintained:
Python Hello World in PyObjC on iPhone?
This is the best project I have ever seen related with the topic
http://pyzia.com
Unfortunatelly, you can't download it yet.
Without it, I think you're left with PyObjC.
You have a good introductory tutorial here.
