Welcome to the pond, Owen!
Most of the people who start working on LilyPond start in scheme, rather
than in C++. But we're happy to have you start with C++ if that's what
you're more comfortable with.
I'd suggest that the easiest way to get your feet wet in LilyPond is to
search for issues with a Frog label:
<http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/list?can=2&q=label:Frog&colspec=ID
+Type+Status+Priority+Stars+Owner+Summary&x=type&y=priority&cells=tiles>
There are lots of those. If one of them is interesting to you, then go for
it. We're happy to provide any help we can.
Thanks,
Carl
