that the user has. And a local command to dump the contents of the
public key to the screen. Something like LISTKEYS, SHOWKEY...
- o The JOIN command's HELP is generated from Irssi IRCs JOIN help and
- the syntax is not same in SILC. This must be fixed. Most likely
- we must forget the Irssi's JOIN command and mimic it to get our
- required syntax for it too.
-
o We should get rid of the clientconfig.[ch] in Irssi SILC and move the
cipher, hash, hmac and pkcs configuration to the Irssi SILC's config
file.
TODO/bugs In SILC Client Library
================================
- o JOIN command's argument handling is buggy. See the XXX in the code.
+ o N/A
TODO/bugs In SILC Server
========================
- o XXXXXXXXX cannot join +a channel from other servers
-
- o Implement the <founder auth> and founder privileges gaining to
- the JOIN command. This will bypass invite-only mode as well for
- the client who got the founder mode during JOIN.
-
- o Optimize the WHOIS and IDENTIFY commands to check if the request
- includes an ID or multiple IDs, then they are checked from local cache
- first, and not sent directly to router. This is because if they
- are found in the local cache there's no need to send them to the
- router. Only if some ID is not found, or an found entry is
- incomplete it can be queried from the router. This way these
- commands become faster, and for example JOIN command becomes a lot
- faster since the server ends up resolving the same information only
- once, as opposed to resolve it everytime JOIN command is issued, like
- it does now.
-
- The same thing can be done with WHOWAS command as well.
-
- It is important to send these requests to router only if they can be
- expanded to many results (as when doing WHOIS for nickname). If
- they are explicit (like requesting by ID) the local cache MUST be
- searched before sending it to router.
-
- o Announcements are incomplete: channel topics are not announced,
- user modes (UMODE) are not announced.
-
- o Change the server to connect to another server from low ports (706)
- and not from high ports. Currently we cannot do incoming connection
- checking by remote port because the port is not fixed.
-
o Backup router related issues
- o After backup resume protocol the TOPIC_SET was not handled
- correctly by all (unknown Channel ID).
-
o Channel user mode changes are notified unnecessarely when
switching to backup router on router crash.
- 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 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
o IP address fields in configuration file should accept mask
format as well, IP/MASK, and not just plain IP.
- o Connection classes should be actually implemented in
- serverconfig.c. They can be defined but they are totally
- ignored currently. And they should be redefined also.
+ 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!
TODO/bugs In SILC Libraries
is not actually async currently.
+TODO in SILC Protocol
+=====================
+
+ o 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.
+
+ o Re-define the Status Payload: it is now 16 bits, split it into two
+ 8 bits fields. First field includes status types from 0 - 9 and
+ 10 - n *if* it is not an list of errors. If it is list of errors then
+ the first field includes 1, 2 and/or 3, and the second field includes
+ the error status 10 - n. This way it is possible to send multiple
+ errors (list of errors) and we have a way to tell the receiver that
+ there will be other errors as well. The second field is used only
+ if there is list of errors. If normal status, or normal (single)
+ error status the second field is set to zero, and must be ignored.
+ Hence, the status works same way as now except for list of errors.
+ To be included in protocol version 1.1.
+
+ o 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.
