List of known issues

1. Logout - The 'sid' cookie which needs to be removed for prompting the login page is not available in the request context. This can be resolved by channging the application context path to / instead of /Report. Clearing the browser cookies will alos prompt the user to login.

2. Profile picture - The user's profile picture is display only when the user is logged-in though the dev community page. This can be tested with harshab85@gmail.com/qwerty123$
