1 Implementable right now (but not necessarily important), with caveats
2 (unavailable components that will limit what can be implemented right
3 away), in order in which they will likely be done:
5 * FS (DHT not available)
7 * DV (distributed testing not available)
8 * TBENCH (distributed testing not available)
9 * TRACEKIT (distributed testing not available)
12 * MySQL / Postgres plugins (datastore, datacache)
15 Urgent items (before announcing ng.gnunet.org):
16 * FS (basic anonymous FS only)
17 - need way to determine network load (up/down)
18 - need *fast* way to check/update trust in peers
19 (async peerinfo would not be right)
20 - implement FS service
21 + P2P-functions (query, response, peer-disconnect)
22 + CS/P2P-functions (initiate P2P, handle P2P->CS)
28 ~ publish (insert, index)
33 * TESTING (needed for DV, DHT, Topology)
34 - implement library for local testing
35 + modify configuration to allow controlling connections for non-local starts
36 + CORE service does not start with valid peer ID (all zeros) -- testcase fails!
37 + consider changing API for peer-group termination to call continuation when done
38 - implement testcases for library
39 + get test for basic peer start to work!
40 + test basic peer connect
43 - topology (needs TESTING)
44 - hostlist (maybe easier with TESTING?)
48 - run peer => have a 0.9.x hostlist
49 - improve basic documentation (configure, dependencies, what works, etc.)
50 - write minimal welcome/introduction to 0.9.x-development/webpage/status
51 => Deploy(able) development network
55 * Module features to implement:
56 - advanced FS API parts
57 + namespaces: fundamental namespace API
58 + search: SBlocks, KSBlocks, probes, notify FS-service of known results
60 + location URIs (publish, search, download)
61 + persistence support (publish, unindex, search, download)
62 + indexing: index-failure-cleanup
63 + download: management/bounding of parallel downloads (for recursive dl.)
64 + datastore reservation (publishing)
65 + gnunet-publish (URI args)
66 + gnunet-download (directory)
67 + gnunet-search (options, incl. namespace search)
68 + gnunet-download (many options)
69 + gnunet-directory (man page, options)
70 + gnunet-pseudonym (all of it)
71 + gnunet-service-fs (remove failing on-demand blocks)
72 + datastore: do active migration support here?
73 - implement adv. FS testcases
74 + insert: sblocks, loc uris
76 + search: sblocks, skblocks, loc uris
79 - implement FS performance tests (needs TESTING)
84 - non-anonymous FS service (needs DHT)
85 + basic DHT integration
86 + CS-DHT-functions (DHT-put of LOC)
87 + P2P-functions (DHT-get)
90 + need to settle basic design; do we want to keep guile?
92 + testbed creation with topology (needs working F2F topology) [Nate]
93 + testbed with churn [Nate]
94 + implement library for distributed testing [Nate]
95 + implement testcases for distributed testing [Nate]
96 + test basic peer re-configure [Nate]
97 + test topology creation [Nate]
98 + test churn generation [Nate]
101 * Module features to implement:
103 + good to have for DV evaluation!
106 + implement DV service [Nate & CG]
107 + implement DV library [Nate]
108 + implement DV transport plugin [Nate & CG]
109 + implement testcases [Nate]
110 + implement performance tests [Nate]
113 + how to integrate scheduler with GTK event loop!
116 * Module features to implement:
118 + good to have for DV/DHT evaluation!
120 + implement DHT service (needs DV, DATACACHE)
121 + implement DHT library
122 + implement testcases
123 + implement performance tests
126 * Plugins to implement:
127 - UDP backend (RC-pre2)
128 + Fragmentation library
130 - HTTP backend (RC-pre2)
135 + see discussions @ FISL about integration with event loop!
136 * Determine RC bugs and fix those!
141 - update webpage documentation
143 - expand bibliography
144 - convert documentation pages to books
145 - update books (especially for developers)
146 - create good Drupal theme for GNUnet
147 - make a NICE download page and figure out how to
148 enable developers to publish TGZs nicely
149 - port "contact" page; add impressum
150 - add content type for "todo" items?
152 * Plugins to implement:
153 - MySQL database backends
156 - Postgres database backends
160 * Determine RC bugs and fix those!
164 * Plugins to implement:
165 - SMTP transport backend
166 - HTTPS transport backend
167 + improved HTTPS support in MHD
169 * Remove KBlocks in gnunet-unindex (see discussion with Kenneth Almquist on gnunet-devs in 9/2009)
170 * Allow checking of presence of search results and/or content via command-line tools
171 (add options to gnunet-search / gnunet-download to limit search to local peer)
