I'm not a team member (and am basically providing a "filler" answer
until you can get an immediate work suggestion), but I would scroll
through the JIRA list[1] (perhaps in the "databases" category) and
look for bugs you can fix.
Do you have enhancements you would like to propose to the Console
webapp in how JDBC is being used? Or internal usage of JDBC? This
would the appropriate forum to discuss them.

I'm looking for a suggestion for some work to do on Geronimo.
Something
like a "bite sized piece" as the Maven or Subversion developers
put it.
I've used Java for the past few years and have written a servlet. I'm
familiar with svn and maven and am working my way through the J2EE
spec.
At this point I've built Geronimo on my pc.
I'm interested particularly in the way JDBC is used in Geronimo.
Hi Dennis,
Sounds great. We'd love to have you contributing...
As Glen mentions, jira issues are an excellent way of identifying
work that needs to be done. I'd suggest you start there.
There's also a Java EE 5 report card -- http://cwiki.apache.org/
GMOxPMGT/geronimo-java-ee-50-report-card.html. This gives you an idea
of some of the work occurring on our development trunk.
Suggest that you have a look at the Geronimo coding standards --
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDEV/coding-standards.html
There's a placeholder in our wiki about contributing patches --
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDEV/how-to-prepare-and-contribute-
patches.html. It needs a bit of attention... Basically, you prepare a
patch file and attach it to the jira (make sure you click the "Grant
license to ASF...").
By posting a request to this list, you can be given "contributor"
karma to the Geronimo Jira database. This allows you additional
capabilities (e.g. issues can be assigned to you). Just need to let
us know your jira username...
