| valign="top" | There is a lot of code in the Spotlight integration code that could be re-used for the Vista search integration.

| valign="top" | Bugzilla: Plugin System
| valign="top" | [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=371333 bug 371333]: Bugzilla has many methods for being extended, but they are not always clearly documented or coordinated. There is also no central repository for downloading plugins, or a standard way to install them. This task would be to make it easy for developers to write plugins, make it easy for administrators to install them, and write a useful sample plugin that demonstrates all of this.

| valign="top" | Bugzilla: Overhaul Charting System
| valign="top" | Bugzilla currently has two charting systems, the Old Charts and the New Charts. Old Charts are very simple, and work. New Charts are very complex, and the code has been abandoned for several years. However, charting is a feature that many users want in a bug-tracking system.
This task would be to implement a charting system that is simple to use, respects Bugzilla's built-in security, and provides the flexibility that administrators want. In particular, the ability to go "back in time" and chart data about the past would be very welcome. (Our current system only starts charting data as soon as you set up a chart, so you can't find out anything about last month, or even yesterday.)

| valign="top" | There may be some questions about importing data from the old systems. I think that New Charts are not in much use, since they aren't complete. The system would have to be able to import Old Charts, but the New Charts system could be entirely replaced by the system built in this project. (However, any left-over New Charts would have to be exported as CSV so that users wouldn't lose their data.)
