-TODO for 1.1
-============
+TODO for 1.2 And Beyond
+=======================
NOTE: Any item that doesn't have (***DONE) in it, isn't done yet. The
(***TESTING NEEDED) means that the item has been done but not yet properly
tested.
+NOTE: A TODO entry does not mean that it is ever going to be done. Some
+of the entries may be just ideas, good, bad or ugly. If you want to work
+on some of the TODO entries simply let us know about it by dropping a note
+to silc-devel mailing list or appear on 'silc' channel on SILCNet.
-apps/silcd, The SILC Server ****PARTLY DONE****
-===========================
- o Port all code to use SILC Toolkit 1.1 APIs.
+General
+=======
- o Fix/test GETKEY.
+ o Create apps/tutorial containing various Toolkit API tutorials.
- o Fix/test MOTD.
+ o The Toolkit split. The Toolkit is to be splitted in parts. How many
+ parts and what the parts are isn't decided yet. Each part is a separate
+ software package. Current thinking is of the following:
- o Remove protocol.[ch]. (***DONE)
+ SILC Toolkit SILC protocol, client and server library
+ SILC Runtime Toolkit runtime library
+ SILC Crypto Toolkit crypto, asn1, math, skr, pgp, etc.
- o Rewrite connecting accepting. (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ The rationale for this is of course that other than SILC projects
+ might like to use the various libraries SILC Toolkit provides, but
+ naturally they don't want the bloat of SILC protocol related stuff.
- o Rewrite async connecting. (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ The Runtime library in SILC Toolkit is a general purpose runtime library,
+ like Glib and APR are. The runtime library is to be developed further
+ to provide alternative to Glib and APR.
- o Connecting from SILC router to SILC server.
+ The Crypto library in SILC Toolkit is a general purpose crypto library
+ providing pretty nice APIs compared to many other crypto libraries,
+ especially OpenSSL. The Crypto library is to be developed further
+ to include support for OpenPGP, X.509 and SSH2.
- o Rewrite rehash, HUP.
- o Heartbeat-keepalive.
+lib/silccore
+============
- o Test backup router resuming protocol.
+ o SILC_PACKET_FLAG_ACK support. Implement ACK packet and packet payload
+ to silcpacket.c.
- o Check all packet receive routines that they call silc_packet_free.
+ o All payload encoding routines should take SilcStack as argument.
- o Add Web statistics module using lib/silchttp. Give out server
- statistics. (***DONE)
+ o All payload test routines into lib/silccore/tests/.
-SILC Client ****PARTLY DONE****
-===========
+lib/silcclient, The Client Library
+==================================
- o Porting to new Toolkit API and new Client Library API (***DONE)
+ o peer-to-peer private messages
- o Improve help files, especially /cmode, /cumode and /key.
+ o Private message key request notification to application. See XXX in
+ client_prvmsg.c.
+ o in JOIN notify handle resolving that timedout. Currently the user is
+ never joined the channel if this happens. What to do if message is
+ received from user that hasn't been resolved/joined?
-lib/silcclient, The Client Library ***PARTLY DONE****
-==================================
+ o Message ACKing support.
- o silcclient.h clean up and API rewrites. (***DONE)
+ o in /cmode and /cumode with +r, maybe the public key and private key
+ could be just some "string", which would then match to "string.pub" and
+ "string.prv".
- o silcclient_entry.h finishing, all entry relates APIs to this header.
- (***DONE)
- o SilcChannelEntry, SilcServerEntry, SilcChannelUser, allocating,
- freeing, finding, etc. rewrite. Also making them reference counted for
- multi threads use. (***DONE)
+Runtime library, lib/silcutil/
+==============================
- o Rewrite silc_client_get_clients_by_channel.
+ o Fix universal time decoding (doesn't accept all formats) in silctime.c.
- o Rewrite client side WHOIS command (for whois -details). (***DONE)
+ o Add functions to manipulate environment variables.
- o Finish all the missing SILC packet processings, rewrites. (***DONE)
+ SilcBool silc_setenv(const char *variable, const char *value);
+ const char *silc_getenv(const char *variable);
+ SilcBool silc_clearenv(const char *variable);
- o The client_notify.c rewrite. (***DONE)
+ o Add functions to loading shared/dynamic object symbols (replaces the
+ SIM library (lib/silcsim) and introduces generic library).
- o Resuming to client_register.c (remove client_resume.c) (***DONE)
+ SilcDll silc_dll_load(const char *object_path, SilcDllFlags flags);
+ void silc_dll_close(SilcDll dll);
+ void *silc_dll_getsym(SilcDll dll, const char *symbol);
+ const char *silc_dll_error(SilcDll dll);
- o Rekey rewrite. (***DONE)
+ o Add directory opening/traversing functions
- o Remove protocol.[ch]. (***DONE)
+ o silc_getopt routines
- o File transfer rewrite. (***DONE)
+ o silc_hash_table_replace -> silc_hash_table_set. Retain support for
+ silc_hash_table_replace as macro.
- o File transfer API documentation. (***DONE)
+ o The SILC Event signals. Asynchronous events that can be created,
+ connected to and signalled. Either own event routines or glued into
+ SilcSchedule:
- o Connection auth request. (***DONE)
+ SilcTask silc_schedule_task_add_event(SilcSchedule schedule,
+ const char *event, ...);
+ SilcBool silc_schedule_event_connect(SilcSchedule schedule,
+ const char *event,
+ SilcTaskCallback event_callback,
+ void *context);
+ SilcBool silc_schedule_event_signal(SilcSchedule schedule,
+ const char *event, ...);
- o Password auth test, public key auth test. (***DONE)
+ Example:
+ silc_schedule_task_add_event(schedule, "connected",
+ SILC_PARAM_UI32_INT,
+ SILC_PARAM_BUFFER,
+ SILC_PARAM_END);
+ silc_schedule_event_connect(schedule, "connected", connected_cb, ctx);
+ silc_schedule_event_signal(schedule, "connected", integer, buf,
+ SILC_PARAM_END);
+ SILC_TASK_CALLBACK(connected_cb)
+ {
+ FooCtx ctx = context;
+ va_list args;
+ SilcUInt32 integer;
+ SilcBuffer buf;
+
+ va_start(args, context);
+ integer = va_arg(args, SilcUInt32);
+ buf = va_arg(args, SilcBuffer);
+ va_end(args);
+ ...
+ }
- o Starting key exchange directly, rewrite. (***DONE)
+ Problems: Events would be SilcSchedule specific, and would not work on
+ multi-thread/multi-scheduler system. The events should be copyable
+ between schedulers.
- o Channel messages, channel private keys, channel entires, channel
- search, etc. rewrite. (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ o Structured log messages to Log API. Allows machine readable log
+ messages. Would allow sending of any kind of data in a log message.
- o For many APIs leave the hash context allocations to the caller instead
- of using client->sha1hash and client->md5hash, or some kind of thread
- safe (no locking) concept. (***DONE)
+ o Base64 to an own API
- o Key agreement rewrite. (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ o Timer API
- o Connecting to remote client (***DONE)
+ o Add builtin SOCKS and HTTP Proxy support, well the SOCKS at least.
+ SILC currently supports SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 but it needs to be compiled
+ in separately.
- o Private message waiting API (in threads) (***TESING NEEDED)
+ o silc_stringprep to non-allocating version.
- o client_attrs.c, attributes rewrite. (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ o SilcStack aware SilcHashTable.
- o No SilcBuffer lists back to application in command_reply operations.
- Convert them all to real lists and/or structures for easier use.
- (***DONE)
+ o SilcStack aware SilcDList.
- o Nickname formatting rewrite. (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ o Compression routines are missing. The protocol supports packet
+ compression thus it must be implemented. SILC Zip API must be
+ defined.
- o UDP connections. (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ (o Generic SilcStatus or SilcResult that includes all possible status and
+ error conditions, including those of SILC protocol. Though, the SILC
+ protocol related status (currently in silcstatus.h) cannot be in
+ runtime library) maybe
+ (o Thread pool) maybe
-lib/silcsftp ****DONE****
-============
+ (o SILC specific socket creation/closing routines to silcnet.h, wrappers
+ to all send(), recv(), sendto() etc. Bad thing is that we'd have to
+ define all socket options, sockaddrs, etc.) maybe
- o Porting to use the new util library. (***DONE)
+ (o mmap) maybe
-lib/silccore/silcpacket.[ch] ****PARTLY DONE****
-============================
+lib/silcutil/symbian/
+=====================
- o SilcPacketEngine. (***DONE)
+ o Something needs to be thought to the logging globals as well,
+ like silc_debug etc. They won't work on EPOC. Perhaps logging
+ and debugging is to be disabled on EPOC. The logging currently works
+ by it cannot be controlled, same with debugging.
- o New SILC Packet API. (***DONE)
- o Implement silc_packet_engine_stop and silc_packet_stream_destroy. (***DONE)
+SFTP Library, lib/silcsftp/
+===========================
- o IV Included flag support, UDP transport support (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ o Read prefetch (read-ahead, reading ahead of time). Maybe if this can
+ be done easily.
-lib/silccore/silcid.[ch] ****DONE****
-========================
+SKR Library, lib/silcskr/
+=========================
- o Add silc_id_str2id to accept the destination buffer as argument
- and thus not require any memory allocation. Same will happen
- with silc_id_payload_* functions. (***DONE)
+ o Add fingerprint as search constraint.
+
+ o Add OpenPGP support. Adding, removing, fetching PGP keys. (Keyring
+ support?)
+
+ o Add support for importing public keys from a directory and/or from a
+ file. Add support for exporting the repository (different formats for
+ different key types?).
+
+ o Change the entire silc_skr_find API. Remove SilcSKRFind and just simply
+ add the find constraints as variable argument list to silc_skr_find, eg:
+
+ silc_skr_find(skr, schedule, callback, context,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_PUBLIC_KEY, public_key,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_COUNTRY, "FI",
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_USAGE, SILC_SKR_USAGE_AUTH,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_END);
- o silc_id_str2id, silc_id2str to non-allocating routines. (***DONE)
+ NULL argument would be ignored and skipped.
+ o Add OR logical rule in addition of the current default AND, eg:
-lib/silcskr ****DONE****
-===========
+ // Found key(s) MUST have this public key AND this country.
+ silc_skr_find(skr, schedule, callback, context,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_RULE_AND,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_PUBLIC_KEY, public_key,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_COUNTRY, "FI",
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_END);
- o Removing key from the repository is not possible currently. It should
- be. (***DONE)
+ // Found key(s) MUST have this public key OR this key context
+ silc_skr_find(skr, schedule, callback, context,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_RULE_OR,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_PUBLIC_KEY, public_key,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_CONTEXT, key_context,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_END);
-lib/silcske/silcske.[ch] ***PARTLY DONE****
-========================
+Crypto Library, lib/silccrypt/
+==============================
- o Responder rekey (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ o Add fingerprint to SilcSILCPublicKey and retrieval to silcpk.h, and
+ possibly to silcpkcs.h.
- o IV Included flag support in SKE (***DONE)
+ /* Return fingerprint of the `public_key'. Returns also the algorithm
+ that has been used to make the fingerprint. */
+ const unsigned char *
+ silc_pkcs_get_fingerprint(SilcPublicKey public_key,
+ const char **hash_algorithm,
+ SilcUInt32 *fingerprint_len);
- o UDP transport changes; retransmission support by using exponential
- backoff algorithm. (***DONE)
+ o Change SILC PKCS API to asynchronous, so that accelerators can be used.
+ All PKCS routines should now take callbacks as argument and they should
+ be delivered to SilcPKCSObject and SilcPKCSAlgorithm too.
- o SilcConnAuth header file documentation. (***DONE)
+ /* Signature computation callback */
+ typedef void (*SilcPKCSSignCb)(SilcBool success,
+ const unsigned char *signature,
+ SilcUInt32 signature_len,
+ void *context);
+ /* Signature verification callback */
+ typedef void (*SilcPKCSVerifyCb)(SilcBool success, void *context);
-lib/silccrypt ****PARTLY DONE****
-=============
+ /* Encryption callback */
+ typedef void (*SilcPKCSEncryptCb)(SilcBool success,
+ const unsigned char *encrypted,
+ SilcUInt32 encrypted_len,
+ void *context);
- o Implement PKCS #1 sign/verify with hash OID. (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ /* Decryption callback */
+ typedef void (*SilcPKCSDecryptCb)(SilcBool success,
+ const unsigned char *decrypted,
+ SilcUInt32 decrypted_len,
+ void *context);
- o Implement SILC Public Key Version 2 handling in sign/verify. Implement
- Version (V) identifier (***DONE)
+ Either add new _async functions or add the callbacks to existing API
+ and if the callback is NULL then the API is not async and if provided
+ it may be async. For example;
- o SILC PKCS (silcpkcs.h) reorganizing when other PK supports added.
- Move the SILC Public Key routines away from the crypto library into
- the core library (silccore). silc_pkcs_public/private_key_* routines
- to silc_public/private_key_* routines. The silc_public_key_* routines
- should also automatically handle SILC Public Keys, and other keys
- and certificates as well. Add fe. silcpk.h into silccore. It should
- also include the Public Key Payload encoding and decoding routines.
- (***DONE)
+ SilcBool silc_pkcs_sign(SilcPrivateKey private_key,
+ unsigned char *src, SilcUInt32 src_len,
+ unsigned char *dst, SilcUInt32 dst_size,
+ SilcUInt32 *dst_len,
+ SilcBool compute_hash, SilcHash hash,
+ SilcPKCSSignCb async_sign,
+ void *async_sign_context);
- o Assembler AES (***DONE)
+ (if this is done then there's no reason why the buffers in the
+ callbacks cannot be the ones user gives here) or allow only async:
+ SilcBool silc_pkcs_sign(SilcPrivateKey private_key,
+ unsigned char *src, SilcUInt32 src_len,
+ SilcBool compute_hash, SilcHash hash,
+ SilcPKCSSignCb async_sign,
+ void *async_sign_context);
-lib/silcutil ****PARTLY DONE****
-============
+ or add new:
- o The regex code from lib/contrib might compile fine on all platforms.
- No need to make it silcutil/unix/ specific. Add them to generic
- silcutil.c. (***TESTNG NEEDED)
+ SilcBool silc_pkcs_sign_async(SilcPrivateKey private_key,
+ unsigned char *src, SilcUInt32 src_len,
+ SilcBool compute_hash, SilcHash hash,
+ SilcPKCSSignCb async_sign,
+ void *async_sign_context);
- o Silc FD Stream to WIN32 (lib/silcutil/silcfdstream.h) (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ o Change PKCS Algorithm API to take SilcPKCSAlgorithm as argument to
+ encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify functions. We may need to for exmaple
+ check the alg->hash, supported hash functions. Maybe deliver it also
+ to all other functions in SilcPKCSAlgorithm to be consistent.
- o bool -> SilcBool (***DONE)
+ o Add DSS support. Take implementation from Tom or make it yourself.
+ o Implement the defined SilcDH API. The definition is in
+ lib/silccrypt/silcdh.h.
+
+ o All cipher, hash, hmac etc. allocation routines should take their name
+ in as const char * not const unsigned char *.
-lib/silcutil/silcbuffer.h ****DONE****
-=========================
+ o ECDSA and ECDH
- o Remove the `truelen' field from SilcBuffer as it is entirely
- redundant since we can get the true length of the buffer by
- doing buffer->end - buffer->header. Add silc_buffer_truelen
- macro instead. Consider also removing `len' field too since
- it effectively is buffer->tail - buffer->data, and adding
- silc_buffer_len macro can do the same. These would save
- totally 8 bytes of memory per buffer. (***DONE)
+SILC Accelerator Library
+========================
-lib/silcutil/silcbuffmt.[ch] ****DONE****
-============================
+ o SILC Accelerator API. Provides generic way to use different kind of
+ accelerators. Basically implements SILC PKCS API so that SilcPublicKey
+ and SilcPrivateKey can be used but they call the accelerators.
- o SilcStack aware silc_buffer_unformat (***DONE)
+ Something in the lines of (preliminary):
- o SilcStack aware silc_buffer_format (***DONE)
+ /* Register accelerator to system */
+ SilcBool silc_acc_register(const SilcAccelerator acc);
- o silc_buffer_format reallocates automatically (***DONE)
+ /* Unregister accelerator */
+ SilcBool silc_acc_unregister(const SilcAccelerator acc);
- o SILC_STR_OFFSET (***DONE)
+ /* Find existing accelerator. `name' is accelerators name and
+ `params' is optional accelerator specific parameters. */
+ SilcAccelerator silc_acc_find(const char *name, const char *params);
+ /* Return accelerator's displayable name */
+ const char *silc_ac_get_display_name(SilcAccelerator acc);
-lib/silcutil/silcstack.[ch] ****DONE****
-===========================
+ /* Accelerate `public_key'. Return accelerated public key. */
+ SilcPublicKey silc_acc_public_key(SilcAccelerator acc,
+ SilcPublicKey public_key);
- o Data stack implementation (***DONE)
+ /* Accelerate `private_key'. Returns accelerated private key. */
+ SilcPrivateKey silc_acc_private_key(SilcAccelerator acc,
+ SilcPrivateKey private_key);
+ /* Return the underlaying public key */
+ SilcPublicKey silc_acc_get_public_key(SilcAccelerator acc,
+ SilcPublicKey public_key);
-lib/silcutil/silcstream.[ch] ****DONE****
-============================
+ /* Return the underlaying private key */
+ SilcPrivateKey silc_acc_get_private_key(SilcAccelerator acc,
+ SilcPrivateKey private_key);
- o Add abstract SilcStream. (***DONE)
+ typedef struct SilcAcceleratorObject {
+ const char *name; /* Accelerator's name */
+ const char *display_name; /* Displayable name */
+ SilcAcceleratorType type; /* Accelerator type */
+ union {
+ struct {
+ SilcPKCSObject *pkcs; /* PKCS, may be NULL */
+ SilcPKCSAlgorithm *algorithm; /* Accelerator */
+ } pkcs;
+ struct {
-lib/silcutil/silcsocketstream.[ch] ****PARTY DONE****
-==================================
+ } cipher;
+ } u;
+ } *SilcAccelerator, SilcAcceleratorStruct;
- o Add SilcSocketStream (***DONE)
+ SilcPublicKey->SilcSILCPublicKey->RsaPublicKey accelerated as:
+ SilcPublicKey->SilcSILCPublicKey->SilcAcceleratorSoftware->RsaPublicKey or
+ SilcPublicKey->SilcSILCPublicKey->SilcAcceleratorPublicKey->
+ SilcAcceleratorSoftware->RsaPublicKey
- o Add SilcSocketStream for WIN32 (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ The former one if u.pkcs.pkcs == NULL.
- o Test QoS after the changes made to socket stream
+ o Implement software accelerator. It is a thread pool system where the
+ public key and private key operations are executed in threads.
+ This implements SilcPKCSAlgorithm (and SilcPKCSObject if needed) that
+ implements the thread acclerated system.
-lib/silcutil/silcschedule*.[ch] ****PARTLY DONE****
-===============================
+ (o Symmetric key cryptosystem acceleration? They are always sycnhronouos
+ even with hardware acceleration so the crypto API shouldn't require
+ changes.) maybe
- o Scheduler can be optimized for FD tasks by changing the fd_queue
- to SilcHashTable instead of using linked list. We need to do
- one-to-one mapping of FD to task and hash table is more efficient
- for this usage.
- Also redefine the silc_select to perhaps return a separate
- structure of the events that actually occurred, instead of
- returning the events in the fd_list which is then traversed
- in the generic code to find the changed events. This can be
- made faster by having own struct which includes only the
- changed events, thus the tarversing is faster since the whole
- fd_list is not traversed anymore (it is still traversed in the
- silc_select but at least it removes one extra tarversing later
- for the same list).
+lib/silcmath
+============
- Other task queues should be changed to use SilcList. (***DONE)
+ o Import TFM. Talk to Tom to add the missing functions. Use TFM in
+ client and client library, but TMA in server, due to the significantly
+ increased memory consumption with TFM, and the rare need for public
+ key operations in server.
- o Add SILC scheduler's internal routines into a table of implementation
- function pointers, that the generic code then takes as extern from
- implementation. These are the silc_schedule_internal_* routines.
- (***DONE)
+ We want TFM's speed but not TFM's memory requirements. Talk to Tom
+ about making the TFM mp dynamic just as it is in LTM.
- o Change SILC_TASK_CALLBACK to non-static, and remove the macro
- SILC_TASK_CALLBACK_GLOBAL. (***DONE)
+ o The SILC MP API function must start returning indication of success
+ and failure of the operation.
- o SILC Schedule API changes to WIN32. (***TESTING NEEDED)
+ o Do SilcStack support for silc_mp_init, silc_mp_init_size and other
+ any other MP function (including utility ones) that may allocate
+ memory.
+ o All utility functions should be made non-allocating ones.
-lib/silcutil/silcasync.[ch] ****DONE****
-===========================
- o Add SilcAsyncOperation to utility library. Any function that takes
- callback as an argument must/should return SilcAsyncOperation.
- (***DONE)
+SILC XML Library, lib/silcxml/
+==============================
+ o SILC XML API (wrapper to expat). The SILC XML API should follow and
+ resemble Simple API for XML (SAX).
-lib/silcutil/silctime.[ch] ****DONE****
-===========================
- o SilcTime. (***DONE)
+lib/silcske/silcske.[ch]
+========================
- o system time, universal, generalized. (***DONE)
+ o Ratelimit to UDP/IP transport for incoming packets.
-lib/silcutil/silcfsm.[ch] ****DONE****
-=========================
+lib/silcasn1
+============
+
+ o Negative integer encoding is missing, add it.
- o SILC Finite State Machine API. Replaces SILC Protocol API (***DONE)
+ o SILC_ASN1_CHOICE should perhaps return an index what choice in the
+ choice list was found. Currently it is left for caller to figure out
+ which choice was found.
+ o SILC_ASN1_NULL in decoding should return SilcBool whether or not
+ the NULL was present. It's important when it's SILC_ASN1_OPTIONAL
+ and we need to know whether it was present or not.
-lib/silcutil/silcnet*, lib/silcutil/*/silc*net* ****PARTLY DONE****
-===============================================
- o Add UDP interface (***DONE)
+lib/silcpgp
+===========
+
+ o OpenPGP certificate support, allowing the use of PGP public keys
+ in SILC.
- o Add UDP interface for WIN32 (***TESTING NEEDED)
- o New network interfaces (***DONE)
+lib/silcssh
+===========
+
+ o SSH2 public key/private key support, allowing the use of SSH2 keys
+ in SILC. RFC 4716.
-lib/silcmath ****PARTLY DONE****
+lib/silcpkix
============
- o Test on x86_64.
+ o PKIX implementation
- o Change LTM and TFM function names when importing to SILC tree to avoid
- rare linking problems on system that has same named symbols already in
- the system. (***DONE)
+lib/silcserver
+==============
-lib/silcutil/symbian/ ****PARTLY DONE****
-=====================
+ o (Re)write commands/command replys.
- o lib/silcutil/symbian routines missing or not completed.
- (****TESTING NEEDED)
+ o (Re)write notify handling.
- o Something needs to be thought to the logging globals as well,
- like silc_debug etc. They won't work on EPOC. Perhaps logging
- and debugging is to be disabled on EPOC.
+ o The SERVER_SIGNOFF notify handing is not optimal, because it'll
+ cause sending of multiple SIGNOFF notify's instead of the one
+ SERVER_SIGNOFF notify that the server received. This should be
+ optimized so that the only SERVER_SIGNOFF is sent and not
+ SIGNOFF of notify at all (using SIGNOFF takes the idea about
+ SERVER_SIGNOFF away entirely).
+ o Another SERVER_SIGNOFF opt/bugfix: Currently the signoff is
+ sent to a client if it is on same channel as the client that
+ signoffed. However, the entire SERVER_SIGNOFF list is sent to
+ the client, ie. it may receive clients that was not on the
+ same channel. This is actually against the specs. It must be
+ done per channel. It shouldn't receive the whole list just
+ because one client happened to be on same channel.
-lib/silcasn1 ****DONE****
-============
+ o Add reference counters to all Silc*Entry structures
+
+ o SERVICEs support (plugin, SIM)
+
+ 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 ASN.1 library (***DONE)
+ 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.
- o Header documentation missing. (***DONE)
+ o Related to above. If multiple JOINs are received in sequence perhaps
+ new key should be created only once, if the JOINs are handeled at the same
+ time. Now we create multiple keys and never end up using them because
+ many JOINs are processed at the same time in sequence. Only the last
+ key ends up being used.
- o Some string encodings missing (copy/paste matter). (***DONE)
+ o The CMODE cipher & hmac change problem (#101).
