Hi Anil,

Which part of XWiki are you most interested in as a user ?

- Forms

If you are interested in the forms system there are a bunch of things 
that need work on.
For example the form validation system is currently existing but not 
integrated in standard XWiki forms (it's only available through the 
XWiki API)
This part also needs a lot of documentation on how to use these features.

There is also the Query Plugin which allows to create search forms and 
automatically generate queries and result tables that would need some 
work and also some documentation.

- Documents

In the documents area there is WebDAV access to the XWiki store and 
attachments which is a cool feature that would help adoption of XWiki.

- Statistics

We are missing a nice usage Statistics user interface. Also it would be 
great to extend statistics to record page views and be able to display 
who has seen what page.

- Email notifications & Watch feature

Rework the email notification plugin to inform people about changes in 
the wiki (asap, daily, weekly, per page, per space)
