-0.9.0pre1:
-* PEERINFO: [CG]
- - finish implementing NEW API (cancel, timeout, submit-during-receive prevention)
- - test new API
- - transition existing code to new API
- - remove support for old API
-* FS: [CG]
- - support recursive download even if filename is NULL and we hence
- do not generate files on disk (use temp_filename)
- - bound parallelism (# fs downloads)
- - distinguish in performance tracking and event signalling between
- downloads that are actually running and those that are merely in the queue
- - persistence support (publish, unindex, search, download)
- - active migration support (in fs or in datastore or new daemon?)
- - gnunet-service-fs (hot-path routing, load-based routing, nitpicks)
- - [gnunet-service-fs.c:208]: member 'LocalGetContext::results_bf_size' is never used
- - [gnunet-service-fs.c:501]: member 'PendingRequest::used_pids_size' is never used

- - [gnunet-service-fs.c:700]: member 'ConnectedPeer::last_client_replies_woff' is never used
- - GAP improvements:
- + active reply route caching design & implementation of service; gap extension!
-* TBENCH: [MW]
- - good to have for transport/DV evaluation!
-* DV: [Nate]
- - write DV API (need to move declarations from dv_api.c to gnunet_dv_service.h!)
- - implement DV service
- - implement DV library (looks done)
- - implement DV transport plugin
- - implement testcases
- - implement performance tests (needs tbench)
-* TOPOLOGY:
- - needs more testing (especially F2F topology) & transport blacklisting
+0.9.0pre2:
* UTIL:
- only connect() sockets that are ready (select()) [Nils]
[On W32, we need to select after calling socket before doing connect etc.]
-* GNUNET-GTK:
- - use g_main_context_set_poll_func to integrate GTK with GNUnet Scheduler!? (YUCK!)
- - OR: add scheduler API to enable integration with GTK main loop instead of doing our own select
- - use g_main_context_pending, g_main_context_query / g_main_context_check / g_main_context_dispatch
- and NEVER g_main_loop_run (can this be done? might be the clean way to do this! But how
- to integrate this with "gtk_main"? Docu says:
- "It's OK to use the GLib main loop directly instead of gtk_main(), though it involves
- slightly more typing. See GMainLoop in the GLib documentation."
- => so maybe it "just works"?
-* SETUP:
- - design & implement new setup tool
-
-0.9.0pre2:
-* TRACEKIT: [MW]
- - good to have for DV/DHT evaluation!
-* DHT: [Nate]
- - implement DHT service
- - implement testcases
- - implement performance tests
-* TRANSPORT:
- - HTTP backend [MW]
-* ARM: [Safey]
- - need to get rid of synchronous API for service starts (cause all kinds of problems)
- [=> eliminate for need to tell ARM about service starts most of the time!] [Safey]
- - better tracking of which config changes actually need to cause process restarts by ARM.
- - listen for requests to discover dependencies between services (and avoid
- having to explicitly program start requests)
- - better crash management (attach debugging support, capture and analyze
- debug output, detect random vs. deterministic crashes)
- - shutdown sequence?
+* CORE:
+ - Jun 27 11:51:54 core-7670 ERROR Assertion failed at gnunet-service-core.c:3616.
+ (transport notified us that we connected to ourselves!!!)
+ - transport-level disconnect (i.e. TCP) does not cause core-level
+ disconnect in a timely fashion (waits for connection timeout);
+ need to figure a way to make it near-instant in those cases
+ (i.e. rapid reduction in timeout on transport-level disconnect) [CG]
+ => may have been fixed with instant-notification of disconnect
+ to core on session-oriented connection hick-up; not perfect but
+ likely good enough until we get ATS going; still should be tested...
+ => "peers connected (transport)" now instantly goes to ZERO (core statistic),
+ but "established sessions" stays up...
+ - derived key generation [Nils]
+* PWNAT: [Nate/MW/Nils]
+ - W32 port
* FS: [CG]
- - datastore reservation (publishing)
- - search: availability probes
- - location URIs (publish, search, download)
- - non-anonymous FS service (needs DHT)
- + DHT integration for search
- + CS-DHT-functions (DHT-put of LOC)

- - collection API & tests
- + gnunet-pseudonym (collection support)
- - implement FS performance tests
- + insert
- + download
- + search
- + unindex
+ - implement 'GNUNET_FS_namespace_list_updateable', reconsider API!
+* GNUNET-GTK: [CG]
+ - namespaces:
+ + namespace publishing
+ / fill tree store with full implementation of 'list_updateable'
+ + namespace search
+ / fill namespace list in dialog, use if selected
+ / NS list in search dialog should use colors to offset our own namespaces from the others
+ / double-clicking on NS list in search dialog should move 'root' to keyword line
+ / right-clicking on NS list in search dialog should open menu that allows
+ \ viewing full meta data
+ \ deletion of namespace info
+ - bugs:
+ + handle 'lost parent' case for recursive downloads (need to move children!)
+ + clean up TreeStores in main_window_file_publish on dialog close
+ + clean up ListStores in main_window_adv_pseudonym

- code clean up
* MYSQL database backends: [CG]
- datacache
- datastore

+ + add support for pushing "already seen" search results to FS service for bloomfilter (can wait)
+ + use different 'priority' for probe downloads vs. normal downloads
+ - service:
+ + trust: do not charge when "idle" / load considerations (migration, routing)
+ + artificial delays
+ + active reply route caching design & implementation; gap extension!
+ - non-anonymous FS service (needs DHT)
+ + DHT integration for search
+ + CS-DHT-functions (DHT-put of LOC)
+ + P2P-functions (DHT-get)
+ - implement FS performance tests
+ + insert
+ + download
+ + search
+ + unindex
+* ARM: [CG/Safey]
+ - better tracking of which config changes actually need to cause process restarts by ARM.
+ - handle gnunet-arm -k in combination with auto-start magic (what is the right thing here?)
+ - discover dependencies between services
+* GNUNET-GTK:
+ - optimize meta-data for directories in 'add_dir_at_iter'
+ - add progress dialog for 'add_dir_at_iter' scan (can take a while...)
+ - finish publish dialog details:
+ + normalize keywords (edit subdialog)
+ + set/view previews (edit subdialog)
+ - add tool bar
+ - implement download by URI dialog; figure out where to display those downloads!
+ - figure out where in the GUI we should show active uploads/unindex operations and allow aborts
+ - implement unindex operation (use dialog with all indexed files for selection)
+ - do meaningful update to status line (starting up, peer running, #connections, shutdown, ...)
+ - events:
+ + search error
+ + publish error
+ + unindex error
+* MONKEY: [Safey]
+ - better crash management (attach debugging support, capture and analyze
+ debug output, detect random vs. deterministic crashes)
+ - '-m EMAIL' option for alternative e-mail TO
+ - '-f FILENAME' option to write report to file instead of e-mail (for testing!)

- convert documentation pages to books
- update books (especially for developers)
- - create good Drupal theme for GNUnet
- - make a NICE download page and figure out how to
- enable developers to publish TGZs nicely
+ - make a NICE download page and figure out how to enable developers to publish TGZs nicely
- port "contact" page
- add content type for "todo" items?
* POSTGRES database backends: [CG]
- datacache
- datastore
* Determine RC bugs and fix those!
+* SETUP:
+ - design & implement new setup tool
+* TBENCH: [MW]
+ - good to have for transport/DV evaluation!
+* TRACEKIT: [MW]
+ - good to have for DV/DHT evaluation!
+* DV:
+ - performance tests
+* DHT: [Nate]
+ - performance tests
+* STATISTICS:
+ - test notification-based statistics API [LT]
+ - implement statistics GUI
+* PEERINFO: [NN]
+ - move peerinfo to new GUI?
+ - extend peer dialog with green-yellow-red connectivity status lights
+ - extend peer dialog with country flags and names
0.9.x:
* TRANSPORT: [MW]
+ - WiFi transport backend [DB]
- SMTP transport backend
- - HTTPS transport backend
- + improved HTTPS support in MHD
- + actual plugin
- Implement method of learning our external addresses from
other peers; need some kind of threshold-based
scheme, limiting both the total number of addresses that we accept
- implement gnunet-transport (transport configurator / tester)
- UPnP-based IP detection
(Note: build library always, build service when libxml2/etc. are available)
+* DV:
+ - proper bandwidth allocation
* FS: [CG]
- Remove KBlocks in gnunet-unindex (see discussion with Kenneth Almquist on gnunet-devs in 9/2009)
- - Allow checking of presence of search results and/or content via command-line tools
- (add options to gnunet-search / gnunet-download to limit search to local peer)
-* PEERINFO: [CG]
+* PEERINFO: [NN]
- expire 'ancient' HELLOs (those without valid addresses AND that
we have not 'used' (for their public keys) in a while; need a way
to track actual 'use')
- make sue we also trigger notifications whenever HELLOs expire
-* VPN
+* VPN [PT]
+* UTIL: [CG]
+ - allow limiting UNIX socket access by UID/GID
- should use BIO instead of mmap
* TRANSPORT:
- need to periodically probe latency/transport cost changes & possibly switch transport
- - instantly filter addresses from *other* peers that
- are *equal* to our own address + port (i.e., localhost:2086). We
- no longer filter those for outgoing (helps with loopback testing
- and keeps the code clean), but we should filter strictly *impossible*
- incoming addresses! This is for efficiency, not correctness.
- - should use hash map to look up Neighbours
-* HOSTLIST:
- - 'server' uses 'GNUNET_PEERINFO_iterate', should probably switch to notification API
- (for more instant / up-to-date hostlists at lower cost)
-* DATASTORE (?):
- - check for duplicates on insertion (currently, same content is frequently
- stored again [seen with KBLOCKS and SBLOCKS]!)
+ - should use hash map to look up Neighbours (service AND plugins!)
+* PEERINFO:
+ - merge multiple HELLOs of the same peer in the transmission queue
+ (theoretically reduces overhead; bounds message queue size)
+ - merge multiple iteration requests over "all" peers in the queue
+ (theoretically reduces overhead; bounds messgae queue size)
+* FS:
+ - use different queue prioritization for probe-downloads vs. normal downloads (!?)
Minor features:
* TCP:
- [./transport/plugin_transport_tcp.c:391]: (style) struct or union member 'Plugin::address_update_task' is never used (related to issue above)
* TRANSPORT:
- [./transport/gnunet-service-transport.c:173]: (style) struct or union member 'TransportPlugin::rebuild' is never used (related to TCP not refreshing external addresses?)
-* DATACACHE:
- - add stats (# bytes available, # bytes used, # PUTs, # GETs, # GETs satisfied)
-* FS:
- - support inline data in directories for recursive file downloads (fs_download)
-
+* BLOCKS:
+ - testcase would be nice...
