Hi Sachin,
Thanks for pointing out those areas where I can start contributing. I will look at the code for Form page editors for deployment plans and Wizards. I will start a separate discussion thread on them. Meanwhile I will also see if I can fix some of the JIRAs in GeronimoDevtools.

Ok, I'll see if I can reproduce on another machine and dig into it.

Great! SWT and JFace experience is definitely something we could
use.  So one of the big things we need coverage on is providing Form
Page editors for our deployment plans.  Currently if you double click
for example on the geronimo-web.xml it will open up a form editor.
You will see that the coverage is currently very minimal and due to
my lack of UI creativity many of the tables and such look exactly the
same. :)  The wizards are also very primative and we desperately need
to enhance these.  So if you're interested this would be a great
place to contribute.  This would also help you get a good
understanding of each of the geronimo deployment plans.
