Hi Dave, and welcome back! Happy to read that there are some people willing to contribute. Seems as if there's still lack of people who can coordinate the release, as Janne describes it. Well, never done that before, but I would be ready to try ;) Can't be that hard, since Apache's documentation seems to be quite good.
I'm not very deep into the codebase, but I can at least give a top level view. The two major changes in 3.0 are * front end uses the Stripes framework, mainly done by Andrew * back end uses the Java Content Repository interface (JSR-170), mainly done by Janne Guess the easiest way to start is to dig into the codebase and have a look at the open JIRA issues.

Sorry for the late response, I've been away for a while ('er years) and I had the messages getting filtered. I should have a bit of time to devote to JSPWiki. I'm pretty far out of the loop tho. What (Java) issues might I focus on first?
