-For version 0.3.0:
+For version 0.5.0:
------------------
-* (Not yet decided).
-
+* Man pages for all programs (done for dinit and dinitctl, not for shutdown/halt etc).
+* The DINIT_ROLLBACK_COMPLETED acknowledgement is never sent, since
+ control_conn_t::rollback_complete() is not currently called. Fix.
+* Write wtmp entry on startup (see simpleinit). Investigate.
+* Support S6-style startup notification (write to fd).

For version 1.0:
----------------
-* Support S6-style startup notification (write to fd)
-* Man pages for all programs (done for dinit, not for dinitctl/shutdown/etc).
-* Write wtmp entry on startup (see simpleinit)
* "triggered" service type: external process notifies Dinit when the service
has started. (maybe?)
* on shutdown, after repeated intervals with no activity, display information
about services we are waiting on (or, do this when prompted via ^C or C-A-D).
-* A (perhaps limited) way(s) to modify a service description after it is loaded -
- eg add/remove dependencies, change properties.
-* Think about detecting runs-on-console dependency conflicts (i.e. if A runs-on-console and
- B depends on A and runs-on-consle then B can never start).
* Documentation must be complete (see section below).
-* Package-manager-friendly way to enable/disable services.
- Perhaps a service can specify a dependency file (with dependency type) where
- the file contains a list of service names, or if it is a directory, each
- filename within corresponds to a service that is a dependency.
+* Proper support for socket activation?
* Be able to boot and shutdown Linux and FreeBSD.
+* Refuse to start new services during shutdown.
For later:
----------
But perhaps this really the responsibility of another daemon.
* Allow running services with different resource limits, chroot, cgroups,
namespaces (pid/fs/uid), etc
+* Support chaining service output to another process (logger) input; if the
+ service dies the file descriptor of its stdout isn't closed and is reassigned
+ when the service is restarted, so that minimal output is lost.
+ - even more, it would be nice if a single logger process could be responsible
+ for receiving output from multiple services. This would require some kind of
+ protocol for passing new output descriptors to the logger (for when a
+ service starts).
Even later / Maybe never:
