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:
4 * TESTING-TESTBED [Nate]
9 * FRAGMENTATION [Ji Lu]
11 * MySQL / Postgres plugins (datastore, datacache)
15 Urgent items (before announcing ng.gnunet.org):
17 - run peer => have a 0.9.x hostlist
18 => Deploy(able) development network
23 - load: need way to determine network load (up/down)
24 - trust: need *fast* way to check/update trust in peers
25 (async peerinfo would not be right)
27 - disconnect notifications from TCP not always as nice as we might want
28 them to be (but how can we do this cleanly given that UDP is connectionless?)
29 - TCP not used bi-directionally (especially important also for PONG!)
30 - hostlist testcase shows that (randomly) we jump to an address that
31 seems to be a plugin function *after* the plugin has been unloaded
32 (directly from scheduler); check that *all* plugin tasks are cancelled
33 after plugin is unloaded! (need better testcases for that...)
35 - synchronous/asynchronous API (& implementation) is not nice;
36 => provide notification-based API
37 - does not seem to work with timeouts (especially if service is not running)
39 - need to get rid of synchronous API for service starts (cause all kinds of problems)
40 [=> eliminate for need to tell ARM about service starts most of the time!] [Safey]
42 - need function to test "equivalency" of HELLOs; use in topology!
44 - needs more testing (especially F2F topology)
48 - 2-peer download is still too slow (why?)
49 * Module features to implement:
50 - advanced FS API parts
51 + namespaces: fundamental namespace API
52 + search: SBlocks, KSBlocks, probes, notify FS-service of known results
54 + location URIs (publish, search, download)
55 + persistence support (publish, unindex, search, download)
56 + indexing: index-failure-cleanup
57 + download: management/bounding of parallel downloads (for recursive dl.)
58 + datastore reservation (publishing)
59 + gnunet-publish (URI args)
60 + gnunet-download (directory)
61 + gnunet-search (options, incl. namespace search)
62 + gnunet-download (many options)
63 + gnunet-directory (man page, options)
64 + gnunet-pseudonym (all of it)
65 + gnunet-service-fs (remove failing on-demand blocks, stats, hot-path routing, load-based routing, nitpicks)
66 + datastore: do active migration support here?
67 - implement adv. FS testcases
69 + insert: sblocks, loc uris
71 + search: sblocks, skblocks, loc uris
74 - implement FS performance tests (needs TESTING)
79 - non-anonymous FS service (needs DHT)
80 + basic DHT integration
81 + CS-DHT-functions (DHT-put of LOC)
82 + P2P-functions (DHT-get)
85 + need to settle basic design; do we want to keep guile?
87 + modify configuration to allow controlling connections for non-local starts
88 + testbed creation with topology (needs working F2F topology) [Nate]
89 + testbed with churn [Nate]
90 + implement library for distributed testing [Nate]
91 + implement testcases for distributed testing [Nate]
92 + test basic peer re-configure [Nate]
93 + test topology creation [Nate]
94 + test churn generation [Nate]
97 * Module features to implement:
99 + good to have for DV evaluation!
102 + implement DV service [Nate & CG]
103 + implement DV library [Nate]
104 + implement DV transport plugin [Nate & CG]
105 + implement testcases [Nate]
106 + implement performance tests [Nate]
109 + how to integrate scheduler with GTK event loop!
112 * Module features to implement:
114 + good to have for DV/DHT evaluation!
116 + implement DHT service (needs DV, DATACACHE)
117 + implement DHT library
118 + implement testcases
119 + implement performance tests
122 * Plugins to implement:
123 - UDP backend (RC-pre2)
124 + Fragmentation library
126 - HTTP backend (RC-pre2)
131 + see discussions @ FISL about integration with event loop!
132 * Determine RC bugs and fix those!
137 - update webpage documentation
139 - expand bibliography
140 - convert documentation pages to books
141 - update books (especially for developers)
142 - create good Drupal theme for GNUnet
143 - make a NICE download page and figure out how to
144 enable developers to publish TGZs nicely
145 - port "contact" page
146 - add content type for "todo" items?
148 * Plugins to implement:
149 - MySQL database backends
152 - Postgres database backends
156 * Determine RC bugs and fix those!
160 * Plugins to implement:
161 - SMTP transport backend
162 - HTTPS transport backend
163 + improved HTTPS support in MHD
165 * Remove KBlocks in gnunet-unindex (see discussion with Kenneth Almquist on gnunet-devs in 9/2009)
166 * Allow checking of presence of search results and/or content via command-line tools
167 (add options to gnunet-search / gnunet-download to limit search to local peer)
169 - should use BIO instead of mmap
171 - expire 'ancient' HELLOs (those without valid addresses AND that
172 we have not 'used' (for their public keys) in a while; need a way
173 to track actual 'use')
174 - make sue we also trigger notifications whenever HELLOs expire
