that the user has. And a local command to dump the contents of the

+TODO/bugs In SILC Client Library
+================================
+
+ o The client library must manage somehow when receiving client that has
+ same nickname, same server, same username but different Client ID than
+ what we have in the cache. It is now assumed that they are different
+ client but it might not be. It should at least number the clients
+ using the client->num so that they can be accessed from the user
+ interface separately or it could just remove the old client unless
+ it is on some channels.
o Add client library parameters or options that handle what kind of
messages the library should print out (using `say' client operation,
TODO/bugs In SILC Server
========================
+ o The SKE protocol in the server does not verify the remote hosts
+ (the router's) public key at all. All public keys are accepted without
+ verification - this obviously is not secure.
+
o When server quits and all clients of that server are removed from all
channels the channel keys are re-generated for all clients. This is
a bug and should be done only once per channel after all clients of
the server has been removed.
+ o Incomplete IPv6 support:
+
+ o silc_server_get_users_on_channel does not support IPv6 based
+ Client ID's.
+ o silc_server_route_get and the route code in general supports
+ only IPv4.
+ o silcd/serverid.c and its routines supports only IPv4.
+
o DNS/IP lookup blocks the server. This must be fixed. Check the
resolver stuff (resolver(3), resolver(5)). Either we have to do the
own resolver stuff (through scheduler, if possible without writing
too much own stuff) or use threads.
- o The ID List must be optimized. When the lists grow the searching
- becomes a lot slower and is some cases the lists are searched many
- times, like with channel messages (twice at least). Some sort of
- hash tables should replace the lists. Thus, the ID cache should be
- rewritten to use hash tables internally.
-
- o New configuration file format must be added. The new one will be
- done using the dotconf config library.
-
o The backup router support described in the protocol specification
should be done at some point.
- o Server says that it is able to listen on multiple ports but currently
- that is bogus. It can, but internals are for single server.
+ o New configuration file format must be added. The new one will be
+ done using the dotconf config library (lib/dotconf). The following
+ tasks relates closely to this as well and must be done at the same time
+ when adding the new config file format:
+
+ o Server says that it is able to listen on multiple ports but
+ currently that is bogus. It can, but internals are for single
+ server.
- o Protocol execution timeouts are hard coded, should be configurable.

TODO/bugs In SILC Libraries
===========================
- o silc_server_get_users_on_channel does not support IPv6 based Client
- ID's.
+ o Incomplete IPv6 support:
- o silc_server_route_get and the route code in general supports only
- IPv4.
-
- o silcd/serverid.c and its routines supports only IPv4.
+ o All network routines in lib/silcutil/silcnet.[ch] does not
+ support IPv6.
+ o silc_id_render supports only IPv4 based ID's in the file
+ lib/silcutil/silcutil.c.
o Compression routines are missing. The protocol supports packet
compression thus it must be implemented. SILC Comp API must be
o The CAST cipher is not compiled currently due to compilation errors;
check those. Cast is in lib/silccrypt/cast.c.
+ o All payload parsing (decoding) functions should take unsigned char *
+ and uint32 as data and data length as arguments. Now some of the
+ routines do already that but most of the routines use SilcBuffer.
+ The SilcBuffer ones should be removed since buf->data and buf->len
+ is more convenient to use. However, the silc_buffer_[un]format
+ routines support only SilcBuffer so they would require reallocation
+ of SilcBuffer. Maybe support for raw data (and not just SilcBuffer)
+ should be added silc_buffer_[un]format_? routines. These are currently
+ only cosmetic changes but at some point must be done to make the
+ payload interfaces consistent.
