RE: Some possible education assistance with maintenance tasks
Thank you for the super quick reply Juan Pablo. Thank you for posing my request to the dev group too – folks, I could use some insight. Greatly appreciated.

In any case, whatever your students end up with, I'd encourage them to subscribe to the dev list, ask there whatever they need, and of course attach patches of their work so it can be reviewed/incorporated on current trunk. Also, if they could document their work at jspwiki-wiki.apache.org<http://jspwiki-wiki.apache.org> that be wonderful too.

I am emailing you because you seem to be the one of the project leaders on this Apache project and I wanted to ask you a favor that would greatly assist me. I am looking for about 5 or 6 non-trivial maintenance tasks that the JSPWiki community is looking to have completed in the software. I looked at the issues database but wanted to touch base with you.

Their iterations are 2 weeks long, so tasks that can fit in that time frame would be wonderful.
