Hmmm Well, I'm not in the business, but if the team was disbanded, then where's the knowledge gone and who will be the next paid team ? I ask because I guess Servo is not the kind of project you just commit some patch over the weekend...

Well, it could be. Almost all open source projects are like this. If you find a typo in a readme file, put in a pull request.

Do 10 of those, and you'll probably have enough understanding to fix one off errors in the documentation.

Do 10 more of those, and you might start answering questions from other people re: how to help the servo project.

Answer 10 of those questions, and you might go, oh hell, I'm already answering questions, why don't I write a blog post introducing people to the servo project so you aren't repeating the same thing over and over again.

write 10 of those kinds of articles, and you'll be ready to be mentored by the great servo and rust community and start making larger code changes, algorithm changes, implementing a feature that you really wanted,

and so on.

You gotta start small!

Honestly the project has had >1000 contributors over the past 8 years and a lot of them did just that.
