---------------------------------------

> It's easy for someone who joins the community to identity the current issues 
> and work on them.

At some point we introduced a @newbie label for this purpose.

BTW I agree that a project with loads of open, outdated tickets looks 
unfriendly.

> James has a JPA implementation of most interfaces that allows to deploy it on 
> top of some popular RDBMS.
> However, while useful for some kind of applications, ORM are usually a bad 
> fit for applications requiring high performance like a mail server.
> As an abstraction, it also prevents from using advanced features of a given 
> RDBMS.
> For most usages, James would probably run great on top of Postgres, given 
> that we use advanced features to implement search, for example.
> A good strategy would be to implement all interfaces implemented by JPA with 
> a modern Postgres driver.
