TODO/bugs in Irssi SILC client
==============================
- o GETKEY server will save the serverkey to the same filename as the
- connected server and thus destroys the key.
-
- o GETKEY server will show first, "there is no such nickname".
-
o Add local command to switch the channel's private key when channel has
several private keys. Currently sending channel messages with many
keys is not possible because changing the key is not possible by the
TODO/bugs In SILC Client Library
================================
- o Having @ in nickname will crash the client after changing the nickname
- back without the @.
+ o Rewrite the channel's user list thingy and cross list it to the
+ Client entry.
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.
- o should /nick nick and /nick Nick cause the Nick to be Nick@host becase
- it used to be nick??
-
- o When changing own nickname and there exists a same nickname the library
- can give the client now nickname in format nick@host. This is new
- behaviour and maybe should be removed. The changer should always
- get the one it wants and not have the formatted nickname.
-
- o Remove the command destructor all together from the client, it is
- not needed and its usage is buggy when the context is registered
- to multiple pending commands.
-
o Additions to do after protocol version 1.1:
o Fix the NICK_CHANGE notify handling not to create new entry
TODO/bugs In SILC Server
========================
- o removing other's modes on channel seems to be possible due to some
- cumode bug.
+ 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.
- o Topic notifications seem to go double times occasionally to a channel.
+ o Make the normal server save user counts with LIST command reply.
+
+ o The router should check for validity of received notify packets from
+ servers (after all buggy servers may send notify that is actually
+ something that should have not been sent).
+
+ o Add hashed passwords to silcd.conf file.
o Backup router related issues
each JOIN command will create and distribute the new channel key
to everybody on the channel.
- o New configuration file format must be added. The new one will be
- done using the dotconf config library (lib/dotconf). The following
+ o New configuration file format must be added. 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 IP address fields in configuration file should accept mask
format as well, IP/MASK, and not just plain IP.
+ o Lots of statistics updating is missing around the server.
+
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!
payload MAC and not alone by packet MAC. To be included in protocol
version 1.1.
+ 8. Remove the administrative commands from the protocol all together.
+ It does not make sense for the protocol to define how a server is
+ reconnected or shutdown, since they are implementation and
+ configuration issues. Besides protocol provides only limited set of
+ administrative commands and cannot define all that one could imagine.
+ To be included in protocol version 1.1.
+
+ 9. Add SILC_MESAGE_FLAG_REPLY for being other side to the
+ SILC_MESSAGE_FLAG_REQUEST. Add generic SILC_MESSAGE_FLAG_DATA, which
+ can include generic payload, which can include generic data. The
+ payload definition is left out for now. To be included in protocol
+ version 1.1.
+
+ 10. Check command reply error status types in various commands,
+ specifically NO_FOPRIV is missing from many commands. To be
+ included in protocol version 1.1.
+
TODO After 1.0
==============
and thus not require any memory allocation. Same will happen
with silc_id_payload_* functions.
+ 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.
+
+ Add also perhaps function silc_buffer_alloc_size that would
+ effectively do:
+
+ return silc_buffer_pull_tail(silc_buffer_alloc(size),
+ size);
+
+ to not require the user to give the pull_tail anymore.
+
o Optimizations in Server
o Remove the big switch statement from the function
should be analyzed too how slow the task registering process
actually is, and find out ways to optimize it.
+ 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 Add SilcAsyncOperation to utility library. Any function that takes
+ callback as an argument must return SilcAsyncOperation.
+
o Cipher optimizations (asm, that this) at least for i386 would be nice.
o Add builtin SOCKS and HTTP Proxy support, well the SOCKS at least.
