Community Goals

These are tickets that nobody in Divmod, Inc. proper is working on, but we'd love to see done for personal reasons. Here are a few:

For finger exercises, you might want to attempt #993; this should be fairly easy but a good exercise for a beginner to find the right place to commit. #324, a last updated attribute (or feature of the timestamp attribute type), also shouldn't be a huge amount of work.

Also on the easy side would be tickets like #3, detecting whether cookies can be set and doing something meaningful with that information.

We really need more ways to keep track of what's going on in an Axiom server. #262 - upgrade status tracking - is a good example of a feature in that vein that's missing.

For those of you interested in database work, some challenging tickets: live queries that you can watch as they change, through the web: #161. You could add safety checks to make sure Items don't have attributes that conflict with backend-specific special names, #1390. Or, you could implement proper nested transactions on top of Axiom's existing transaction support: #252. Or support important missing parts of the relational model, for example, #366, adding constraints.
