TODO/bugs in Irssi SILC client
==============================
- o /cumode for unknown nick does not give any error message (Fix this to
- 1.0).
+ o UTF-8 encode/decode WHOIS userinfos, topic, etc.
+ o Manaul file for silc(1) and silc.conf.
-TODO/bugs In SILC Client Library
-================================
-
- o The PRIVATE_MESSAGE_KEY packet is not handled (it is implemented
- though). This should be added and perhaps new client operation
- should be added to notify application that it was received and
- set the key only if application wishes to set (accept the key) it
- (Do this to 1.0).
+ o Testing
- o Remove conn->current_channel.
- o Additions to do after protocol version 1.1:
+TODO/bugs In SILC Client Library
+================================
- o Add support for list of errors in command replies. Protocol
- TODO entry 1.
+ o Testing
TODO/bugs In SILC Server
========================
- o Configuration file additions (Do this to 0.8.x):
-
- o Add incoming connection frequency, incoming connection frequency
- for single IP address, key exchange frequency, key exchange
- frequency for single IP. Add also frequency base.
-
- o If server send CUMODE_CHANGE notify (like setting founder) to router
- and router does not have founder on channel (founder is left or there's
- no founder on channel at all), the router will accept the server's
- founder mode change, even though it perhaps should not do that (Fix
- this to 0.9).
-
- o The router should check for validity of received notify packets from
- routers (fix this to 0.9). Following NOTIFYs needs to be verified:
-
- o JOIN (check that joining is allowed)
- o SIGNOFF (maybe should check that notifier owns the client)
-
- o Backup router related issues (Fix this to 1.0):
+ o If client's public key is saved in the server (and doing public key
+ authentication) then the hostname and the username information could
+ be taken from the public key. Should be a configuration option!
- o Channel user mode changes are notified unnecessarely when
- switching to backup router on router crash.
+ o Backup router related issues:
- o Add a timeout to handling incoming JOIN commands. It should be
- enforced that JOIN command is executed only once in a second or two
- seconds. Now it is possible to accept n incoming JOIN commands
- and process them without any timeouts. THis must be employed because
- each JOIN command will create and distribute the new channel key
- to everybody on the channel (Fix this to 1.0).
+ o Add special handling in router and server for "connection
+ timed out" error. Be optimistic.
- o Lots of statistics updating is missing around the server.
+ o Manual file for silcd(8) and silcd.conf.
- o If client's public key is saved in the server (and doing public key
- authentication) then the hostname and the username information could
- be taken from the public key. Should be a configuration option!
+ o Testing
TODO/bugs In SILC Libraries
o WIN32 silc_net_create_connection_async does not work the same way
than on Unix. Do it with threads on WIN32. The function works but
- is not actually async currently (Fix this to 1.0).
+ is not actually async currently (Fix this to 0.9.x).
TODO in Toolkit Documentation
=============================
Stuff that needs to be done in order to complete the Tooolkit Reference
-Manual (Do these to 0.9 and 1.0).
-
- o ROBOdoc documenting missing from lib/silcutil/silcbuffer.h.
-
- o ROBOdoc documenting missing from lib/silcutil/silcdlist.h.
-
- o ROBOdoc documenting missing from lib/silcutil/silcfileutil.h.
-
- o ROBOdoc documenting missing from lib/silccrypt/silchash.h.
+Manual (Do these to 0.9.x).
o ROBOdoc documenting missing from lib/silccrypt/silccipher.h.
Toolkit support, what has been implemented, what has not been, what
works differently etc.
+ o Automatically generated index (would be nice).
-TODO in SILC Protocol
-=====================
-
-Current protocol version is 1.0. However, it is far from being perfect,
-and needs to include additional features. Following protocol TODO entries
-describe new stuff to be added to protocol versions 1.x.
-
- 2. Define that WHOIS and IDENTIFY commands must send list of errors
- if multiple Client ID (or Channel ID and Server ID for IDENTIFY) was
- requested and was not found. Each unfound entry must cause an error
- command reply to the sender. Also define that errors must be sent
- *after* sending successfully found entries (this way receiver may
- ignore them). To be included in protocol version 1.1.
-
- 4. Add "request parameters" or similar to the WHOIS command, which can
- be used to request various parameters (something not returned by
- standard WHOIS command) about clients (info that could be fetched
- even from clients). Additional specification (or appendix) should
- be done to define the payload and the parameters. It could be used
- to make the WHOIS command support various search conditions as well.
- This would be the way to extend the WHOIS command to support various
- new features without always making the command incompatible to previous
- version. To be included in protocol version 1.1.
-
- 17. Cell wide channel founder support, and permanent channels when
- founder mode set.
-
- 20. Services support?
-
- 21. Subscription/IRC's notify kind support?
-
- o Inviting and banning by public key should be made possible. To be
- included in protocol version 1.2.
-
- o UTF-8 support/requirement for nicknames & channel names. UTF-8 support
- in terminals and OS's are so hazy that this matter is left for
- consideration in next version of the protocol (1.2). For good UTF-8
- reference and tutorial see: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html.
- What should CLI application do if it receives nickname that it cannot
- display without messing up the terminal? If UTF-8 is mandatory in
- SILC then SILC clients cannot be allowed to start on terminals that do
- not support UTF-8 (which renders 98% of users unable to use CLI SILC
- app without hacking their environment). See also site
- http://gratrix.net/unicode/
+ o Searching of predefined keywords, exact and partial matches (would be
+ nice).
