Its important to focus on what you want to do.  Neither one of the tickets
above involve sysadmin-test or sysadmin-hosted really.  629 could use
sysadmin-test but it would probably be better to get it up and running on
your workstation first.

As far as what to look for, mostly pick things that you're good at or
interested in.  If you have python experience you could get working on 629
and submit a patch.  The code is at:
