-TODO LIST
+TODO list for MeshLink
+----------------------
-Goals for 1.0 release:
+Refactoring: getting rid of global variables. Ultimately, no global variables
+should be used by the library (if possible). Tinc uses quite a lot of global
+variables. Refactoring this should go into steps:
-* Check Solaris port
-* Check different linux architectures (x86, alpha done)
-* Store private key in a separate file (done, 1 dec 2000)
-* Sanity checks on configuration directory
-* Use efficient tree algorithms instead of linked lists (largely done)
-* Reenable queues for delayed packets
-* Merge documentation files (SECURITY, INSTALL, PROTOCOL) into tinc.texi
+* Temporarily create a global meshlink_handle_t *mesh (done)
+* Move global variables to meshlink_handle_t (partially done)
+ - This means moving the declaration from the old .h file to meshlink_internal.h inside meshlink_handle_t
+ - Then doing sed 's/variable/mesh->&/g' *.c -i, and running make to check for any errors
+After that is completed:
-Goals for future releases:
+* Add meshlink_handle_t *mesh as the first argument to functions that need it
-* Compression
-* Routing by MAC (allows for more than only IPv4)
-* Broadcast/multicast
-* Windowing, chaffing, scattering, background noise
-* ABC protocol (superscalabilty)
-* Proxy ARP
-* Eazy setup scripts (graphical?)
-* Threading
+Then:
+
+* Write code for all the functions in meshlink.c (some can be moved from libmeshlink.c)
+
+Other tasks:
+
+* Use snprintf() instead of xasprintf() when generating filenames
+ - Use char filename[PATH_MAX] on the stack. No more need to free().
