Thank you so much for the insightful pointers on how to start. I would love to look into the Neo4j upgrade process, but a personal objective is to improve Tinkerpop's OLAP capabilities. So I have very much gravitated towards the OLAP issues that you pointed to.
To get warmed up a bit, I was thinking of looking at 1684 to get the grips of debugging in the core, and then look at 1960 and 1643. Does that sound like a reasonable strategy, or would it be too much to bite? Also, could you please help me with some pointers as to where I can start, which code module to look at etc? I am happy to do the specific conversation on the JIRA ticket as well if that makes documenting easier.
