Depending on remaining time and student experience, adding performance tests to Lightning would be a bonus.
| Javascript; Python and make for perf tests

| A student applying for this project should be able to work with large codebases. Getting familiar with the Lightning source code early improves chances of being accepted. Look for Fallen on irc.mozilla.org / #calendar if you need help getting started.
* Turn the CalDAV calendar into a cache-only provider (no bug yet)

| As these changes will partially require some migration steps, it is important to write unit tests for the code produced during the Summer of Code. Not all of the mentioned bugs need to be fixed for passing mid-terms and finals, please read through the bugs and consult with mentor or reporter with your suggestion when applying.
* udpate the caldav provider to the latest spec chunk by chunk

| The work involved will be significantly more and would require deep analysis of the calendar code base. However, the end-product would bring cheers to a lot of users and end complaints of lightning not functioning with a particular server. As a start dive into the RFC and the buglist to find out some of the easy cases which can be solved to gauge the difficulty of the project.
