Hi Devs,
I've gone through xwiki-core JIRA list and i selected following three
issues
out of which i wish to pick a one. But before
jumping in, i need some
guidance on which one to select. I thought it's best to ask from the
list
since i might not be aware of the severity of
these issues.
* XWIKI-2191 <http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2191> - (When user
logout, his pages locks should be removed - Reported by Thomas Mortagne)
This is the only focused issue from this list, as it has a specific
goal. It would take an experienced developer with some free time less
than 20 minutes to solve it. It would be a good issue for a complete
beginner.
I need some guidance :)
How can i track the execution from web interface to core ? I mean when user
performs an action on the UI (like logging in, logging out, saving a
document etc.) how can i track down the execution of code ? From where
should i start looking into the code (entry point) ?
I hope my explanation is clear enough.
Thanks.

* XWIKI-1538
<http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1538> - (Improve
performance by efficiently using synchronized code - Reported by Sergiu
Dumitriu)
This is not something easy, as requires searching all the platform for
synchronized code, deciding how to best fix it, and all this requires a
deeper knowledge of how the entire core works, so I'd advice against
this. Yet, this would be the issue with the best impact, as it will
improve the speed.
* XWIKI-671
<http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-671> - (Refactor
the
code using deprecated API - Reported by Sergiu
Dumitriu)
This is a good issue if you want to learn the platform. Again, it is not
something specific, and requires looking through all the code, learning
how different parts of the platform work, getting in contact with
different libraries. The downside is that it is quite large, so it will
take several days to fix all the deprecations.
