$Id$ MBSE BBS V0.61.2 TODO list. --------------------------- These are a list of things that must be implemented one way or another. Some things are urgent and necessary to operate the bbs without human intervention, others are just for comfort, or nice. I think this list will always contain items, I only hope the urgent matters will be removed. Note that most goodies are still in my mind instead of in this file. Classes: U = Urgent. N = Normal, second priority. L = Cosmetic or nice to have. X = Will not be done unless it's really needed. everything: L: Consider XML format for databases. L: Implement IPv6. L: Document error return codes in the manual. install: N: On some (unsupported) distro's with xinetd the installation script also adds entries to inetd.conf. libdiesel.a: U: Processed stringlines containing unbalanced " characters are not processed, instead the previous macro value will be returned. mbsebbs: X: Better word wrapping or paragraph justification in editor. X: E-mail downloads with e-mail verification. N: OLR, implement file requests. N: Only count posted messages in local mail areas. L: ChangeHandle, allow own unix name as handle. X: OLR: tagged areas must have 3 states, off, on or personal only. X: OLR: implement limit date function. X: OLR: include private email area in download packets. X: OLR: implement some global settings from the offline configuration. X: OLR: implement keywords and filters. X: OLR: check qwke extensions. N: OLR: qwk, check netmail entered from reader, fido address missing? N: Translate characterset of messages to the users preferred characterset. This is partly done for testing. N: There are some bugs in the bbs list menu. Make it a door? newuser: L: Allow handles to be the same as the unixname. mbfido: N: Count posted messages during mailscan. N: Code cleanup and make a structure in this program. Remove duplicate or similar functions. N: Process GoldED filerequest netmails with the filereq flag set, we should create a .req file with the contents of the subject line. N: Process To: and Cc: lines in messages gated from Fido to Internet. N: Add macro's for stats of all months. L: Implement netmail K/S flag to mark netmail Deleted. N: Implement file requests for directory nodes. L: Add %from command to areamgr/filemgr. L: Add netmail notification of changed areas. L: Maybe store insecure echomail in badmail area. L: Maybe store echomail for unknown areas in badmail area. L: Make it possible to only virus scan the complete archives. N: Let mbfido areas with a special switch update area descriptions. N: Send rulefile via netmail for each new connected mail area. N: Send notifications to downlinks about changed areas from uplink. N: Add statistic mail messages. Via AMC?? N: With auto created areas golded.inc is not adjusted to the new setup. N: After readalias we need to free the alias list when mbfido ends. N: Reimplement characterset conversion again on the gateway. N: When adding a record to the toberep database add check for existing older entry to update the info with the later received file. Else just handle the record as a dupe (In test again). N: Hatch statistics are not updated. mbcico: L: Implement binkp option ND. N: Implement PLZ turn off m_get command. N: Make workaround for binkp bug in Irex 2.24 upto 2.29 mbfile: L: Update <-touch> L: Possibility to skip file areas from checking and reindexing. N: The import function does not create long filenames. N: The import function doesn't strip the [0] from the files.bbs when importing the description. N: The import function has troubles when there is nothing behind the filename. N: It is not possible to import areas that run of cd-roms. Do we still need cd-rom support with current hd prices? mbaff: L: Rewrite filefind search algorithm. mbsetup: N: Add a check for double areatag names. N: Use some sort of sorting for the system aka's and make sure the main aka with zone's is listed first. Having zone's mixed gives too high outbound stats and the outbound is scanned multiple times. N: Put ZMH fields in the network setup for each zone. Currently Z1-6. N: Add switch for file area to skip checking and indexing. N: Add global setup in menus 9.1 and 10.1 at least to change uplink data.
