5 + peer selection => how to consider latency/bw/etc?
6 + content transmission => how often the same block?
8 - gnunet-service-fs (hot-path routing, load-based routing, nitpicks)
9 + active reply route caching design & implementation of service; gap extension!
11 - good to have for transport/DV evaluation!
13 - write DV API (need to move declarations from dv_api.c to gnunet_dv_service.h!)
14 - implement DV service
15 - implement DV library (looks done)
16 - implement DV transport plugin
18 - implement performance tests (needs tbench)
20 - needs more testing (especially F2F topology) & transport blacklisting
22 - only connect() sockets that are ready (select()) [Nils]
23 [On W32, we need to select after calling socket before doing connect etc.]
24 - add support for UNIX domain sockets [CG]
26 - use g_main_context_set_poll_func to integrate GTK with GNUnet Scheduler!? (YUCK!)
27 - OR: add scheduler API to enable integration with GTK main loop instead of doing our own select
28 - use g_main_context_pending, g_main_context_query / g_main_context_check / g_main_context_dispatch
29 and NEVER g_main_loop_run (can this be done? might be the clean way to do this! But how
30 to integrate this with "gtk_main"? Docu says:
31 "It's OK to use the GLib main loop directly instead of gtk_main(), though it involves
32 slightly more typing. See GMainLoop in the GLib documentation."
33 => so maybe it "just works"?
35 - design & implement new setup tool
39 - good to have for DV/DHT evaluation!
41 - implement DHT service
43 - implement performance tests
47 - better crash management (attach debugging support, capture and analyze
48 debug output, detect random vs. deterministic crashes)
49 - discover dependencies between services
50 => need UNIX domain sockets first!
51 - handle gnunet-arm -k in combination with auto-start magic (what is the right thing here?)
53 - datastore reservation (publishing)
54 - location URIs (publish, search, download)
55 - unindex on index failure
56 - utilize in-line files in meta data always (including in search results or
57 when download is triggered manually and for probes); currently the data is
58 only used when users do a general 'recursive' download
59 - non-anonymous FS service (needs DHT)
60 + DHT integration for search
61 + CS-DHT-functions (DHT-put of LOC)
62 + P2P-functions (DHT-get)
63 - collection API & tests
64 + gnunet-pseudonym (collection support)
65 - implement FS performance tests
71 - improved content selection (not just 'get_random')
74 * Determine RC bugs and fix those!
76 - modify configuration to allow controlling connections for non-local starts
77 - testbed creation with topology (needs working F2F topology)
79 - implement testcases for distributed testing
80 - test basic peer re-configure
81 - test topology creation
82 - test churn generation
83 - consider changing API for peer-group termination to
84 call continuation when done
89 - integration with transport service
90 * MYSQL database backends: [CG]
94 - reconstruct IBLOCKS from DBLOCKS if possible (during download; see FIXME in fs_download)
95 - add support for pushing "already seen" search results to FS service for bloomfilter (can wait)
96 - use different 'priority' for probe downloads vs. normal downloads
98 - better tracking of which config changes actually need to cause process restarts by ARM.
102 - expand bibliography
103 - convert documentation pages to books
104 - update books (especially for developers)
105 - create good Drupal theme for GNUnet
106 - make a NICE download page and figure out how to enable developers to publish TGZs nicely
107 - port "contact" page
108 - add content type for "todo" items?
109 * POSTGRES database backends: [CG]
112 * Determine RC bugs and fix those!
116 - SMTP transport backend
117 - HTTPS transport backend
118 + improved HTTPS support in MHD
120 - Implement method of learning our external addresses from
121 other peers; need some kind of threshold-based
122 scheme, limiting both the total number of addresses that we accept
123 this way as well as requiring multiple confirmations; also, we
124 should possibly try to confirm that the given address works for
125 us ourselves (loopback-style) before adding it to the list
126 + we may be able to simplify WELCOME messages (no need to add
127 addresses there anymore, but may help to learn them there anyway...).
128 + we probably want some kind of voting/counting for learning IP addresses
129 (maybe including IP addresses in ads proportional to how often others
130 report them? we at least need some protection against >64k HELLOs!),
131 + provide a way to give the user a list of "learned" IP addresses and
132 a way to easily "veto" addresses off the list!
133 => If MiM attacker uses vetoed address, blacklist the specific IP for
134 the presumed neighbour!
135 - implement gnunet-transport (transport configurator / tester)
136 - UPnP-based IP detection
137 (Note: build library always, build service when libxml2/etc. are available)
139 - Remove KBlocks in gnunet-unindex (see discussion with Kenneth Almquist on gnunet-devs in 9/2009)
141 - expire 'ancient' HELLOs (those without valid addresses AND that
142 we have not 'used' (for their public keys) in a while; need a way
143 to track actual 'use')
144 - make sue we also trigger notifications whenever HELLOs expire
151 - should use hash map to look up sessions
153 - should use BIO instead of mmap
155 - need to periodically probe latency/transport cost changes & possibly switch transport
156 - should use hash map to look up Neighbours (service AND plugins!)
158 - check for duplicates on insertion (currently, same content is frequently
159 stored again [seen with KBLOCKS and SBLOCKS]!)
161 - merge multiple HELLOs of the same peer in the transmission queue
162 (theoretically reduces overhead; bounds message queue size)
163 - merge multiple iteration requests over "all" peers in the queue
164 (theoretically reduces overhead; bounds messgae queue size)
166 - use different queue prioritization for probe-downloads vs. normal downloads (!?)
170 - repeatedly resolve hostname and look up interfaces to determine our own IP
171 - [./transport/plugin_transport_tcp.c:391]: (style) struct or union member 'Plugin::address_update_task' is never used (related to issue above)
173 - [./transport/gnunet-service-transport.c:173]: (style) struct or union member 'TransportPlugin::rebuild' is never used (related to TCP not refreshing external addresses?)
175 - testcase would be nice...
