General Roundup project TODO list. Note that some of these are semi-formed ideas. Those ideas that don't make the cutoff for the next major release are punted automatically into the subsequent major release TODO. State Description ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ pending example: meta/parent bug implementation (feature request #506815) pending hyperdb: write a backend for gadfly pending hyperdb: range searching of values (dates in particular) - filter specifies {property: (comparison function, value)} comparison functions: lt, le, eq, ge, gt. eq and [value, value, ...] implies "in" pending hyperdb: make creator, creation and activity available pre-commit pending hyperdb: migrate "id" property to be Number type pending hyperdb: allow classes to define their ordering (properties, asc/desc) pending instance: including much simpler upgrade path and the use of non-Python configuration files (ConfigParser) pending instance: move the header link config out into an html template pending instance: cleanup to support config (feature request #498658) pending instance: split instance.open() into open() and login() pending instance: rename to "instance" to "tracker" pending instance: sanity check instance setup after all these changes pending mailgw: allow commands (feature request #556996) like "help", "dump issue123" (would send all info about issue123, including a digest of all messages, but probably not all files...), "list issue", ... pending mailgw: Allow multiple email addresses at one gw with different default classes and property values (possibly through command-line args to the mailgw as invoked in the mail delivery "aliases" file) eg: roundup: "|roundup-mailgw /instances/dev" vmbugs: "|roundup-mailgw /instances/dev component=voicemail" pending project: switch to a Roundup instance for Roundup bug/feature tracking pending security: at least an LDAP user database implementation pending security: authenticate over a secure connection pending security: use digital signatures in mailgw pending web: I18N pending web: Better message summary display (feature request #520244) pending web: Navigating around the issues (feature request #559149) pending web: Re-enable link backrefs from messages (feature request #568714) pending web: fix double-submit by having new-item-submit redirect at end pending web: Quick help links next to the property labels giving a description of the property.
