PHASE #1: (Goal: settle key design questions)
-Core:
-* API review: should "bpm" and "last_activity" arguments be
- included in the ClientEventHandler?
-* Internal: topology
-* Internal: bandwidth allocation (inbound limits, trust)
-* Internal: advertising (propagate other peers' HELLOs, find new ones)
-* Internal: bootstrapping
- => bootstrap should use plugins, possible multiple at the same time!
Util:
-* consider adding "get_time" to "configuration" API
+* improve disk API [Nils] (Nils, is this done? -Christian)
+* Windows: use events instead of pipes to signal select()s [Nils]
+* only connect() sockets that are ready (select()) [Nils]
+ [On W32, we need to select after calling socket before
+ doing connect etc.]
TESTCASES WANTED:
For these functions, it would be nice if we had testcases ("make check")
- set_key_retry_task
- align_and_deliver
- handle_transport_notify_disconnect
+* hostlist (everything)
+* topology (everything)
-PHASE #2: (Goal: recover basic core functionality)

Datastores:
* implement sqlite-based sqstore/datastore service
- + implement library (talks to service)

* DHT, DV
* FS / fs-libs
-Databases:
-* mysql & postgres backend
-
-Transports:

-* HTTP backend
-* Testing:
- + Testcases for set_quota, timeouts, disconnects, transmit_ready_cancel
- + Better coverage of gnunet-service-transport (hello validation)
- + direct test of plugins compliance to plugin API

Minor TODO items:
+* UTIL:
+ - crypto_hash: use libgcrypt (supports SHA-512 since 2003)
+ - container_bloomfilter: improve efficiency (see FIXME)
* SERVER:
- inefficient memmove
* TRANSPORT:
- transport_api: support forcing disconnects through low quotas!
- - API: consider having core provide priority and possibly
- deadline information for each message
+ (required for working F2F support!)
+ - API: consider having core provide deadline information for each message
(likely important for DV plugin which wants to loop back!)
- implement transport API to pretty-print transport address
+ transport_api extension (API extension!)
should possibly try to confirm that the given address works for
us ourselves (loopback-style) before adding it to the list
[SECURITY issue]
+ + we may be able to simplify WELCOME messages (no need to add
+ addresses there anymore, but may help to learn them there anyway...).
+ + we probably want some kind of voting/counting for learning IP addresses
+ (maybe including IP addresses in ads proportional to how often others
+ report them? we at least need some protection against >64k HELLOs!),
+ + provide a way to give the user a list of "learned" IP addresses and
+ a way to easily "veto" addresses off the list!
+ => If MiM attacker uses vetoed address, blacklist the specific IP for
+ the presumed neighbour!
- not sure current way of doing ACKs works well-enough
with unreliable transports where the ACK maybe lost;
the "is_new" check would then possibly prevent future
and results in code replication
- should latency be included in the ReceiveCallback and
NotifyConnect or passed on request?
+ - FIXME's with latency being simply set to 0 in a few places
+ - Memory leak (running valgrind --trace-children=yes on test_transport_api:
+ ==28393== 16 bytes in 1 blocks are indirectly lost in loss record 1 of 5
+ ==28393== at 0x4C2260E: malloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:207)

* SETUP:
- auto-generate "defaults.conf" using gnunet-setup from "config.scm"
- integrate all options into "config.scm"
- implement exponential back-off for service restarts
- better tracking of which config changes actually need to cause process restarts by ARM.
- have way to specify dependencies between services (to manage ARM restarts better)
+ - client-API is inefficient since it opens a TCP connection per service that is started
+ (instead of re-using connections).
+* CORE:
+ - code currently notifies clients about "encrypted" connections being up well before
+ we get the encrypted PONG; sometimes this may be OK (for topology killing
+ unwanted connnections), but of course not in general. I suspect we want
+ to signal on PONG and have topology hook directly into transport to
+ kill plaintext connections before they have a chance to become encrypted
+ (may require minor hack in transport API)
* PEERINFO:
- have gnunet-peerinfo print actual host addresses again
- add option to gnunet-peerinfo to modify trust value
* GAP improvements:
- active reply route caching design & implementation of service,
gap extension!
+* HOSTLIST:
+ - implement advertising of hostlist URL
+ - implement learning of hostlist URLs
+
+
