Hi, What is your background from a development standpoint? Also, what is the time frame for the Summer of Code project? (Excuse my ignorance about it -- not being eligible, I haven't followed it as closely as I could.) OPENJPA-130 is a great project for someone interested in learning about how OpenJPA loads and stores data, and the intricacies of how field mappings work. OPENJPA-125 is probably not a good place to start, since I think that we're going to want to get something hammered out for it before summertime is over.
If you're looking for more ideas, I can think of a number of other interesting projects that involve various other parts of OpenJPA, such as OPENJPA-170, OPENJPA-129, OPENJPA-128, OPENJPA-127. Are you more interested in learning about the OpenJPA architecture as a whole, or about creating a feature and expertise in one particular area of the codebase? -Patrick -- Patrick Linskey BEA Systems, Inc. _______________________________________________________________________ Notice: This email message, together with any attachments, may contain information of BEA Systems, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, that may be confidential, proprietary, copyrighted and/or legally privileged, and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in this message.
