Cleaned up all broken occurances found. Did not check crypto/dist. (filenames imply these are not for exec $EDITOR) Did not fully check sh and ksh. (lost in twisty mazes of function calls and finally just assumed it was good) and did not check gnu/dist/cvs (appears ok by testing with this commit)

THINGS TO BE DONE:
|
|
|
|
[ Note that this list does not include change requests filed via 'gnats'.
|
|
For information about them, mail query-pr@NetBSD.org. ]
|
|
|
|
This is a list of things that need to be done for NetBSD. Some of
|
|
these projects are small, others are large. Some are extremely
|
|
important, others are enhancements to make the system more flexible
|
|
for the wide variety of NetBSD users and their applications.
|
|
|
|
In general there are some guidelines for work to be included in
|
|
NetBSD. Chief among these are:
|
|
|
|
(1) Keep GPLed stuff out of the kernel.
|
|
(2) Introduce little to no more GPLed stuff as non-optional
|
|
components of the user environment.
|
|
(3) Only clean code, that lends itself to further enhancement
|
|
(4) Keep architecture dependent code out of architecture independent
|
|
directories
|
|
|
|
Associated with some entries are login names which indicate persons or
|
|
groups who may already be working on that problem. This isn't to say
|
|
that others shouldn't also look at it, but consultation with other
|
|
parties may result in less duplicated work. A directory of these
|
|
persons can be found after the todo list itself.
|
|
|
|
Please don't hesitate to suggest more projects for this list.
|
|
Suggestions, comments, etc to projects@NetBSD.org.

|
|
|
High Kernel:
|
|
swap fixes:
|
|
swap to file of dynamic size; see apollo
|
|
nfs:
|
|
kernel suport for lockd(8), lockf(3)
|
|
clean up support for LKM and protections checking (cgd)
|
|
|
|
Low Kernel:
|
|
[hp300] integrate into new SCSI setup (or wait for torek's?)
|
|
|
|
User-level support:
|
|
replace routed with gated (trouble with gated license).
|
|
|
|
User programs:
|
|
rwall nfs-mountees on shutdown
|
|
add detachment to window
|
|
clean up gas config files, set up common defines
|
|
|
|
Pie-in-the-Sky:
|
|
someone should actually test all the netiso stuff.
|
|
SMB filesystem
|
|
|
|
Documentation:
|
|
modify sys docs to reflect NetBSD/arch-specific stuff
|
|
clean up src/share/man/{man0,tools} so that we can generate a printable
|
|
version from the manpages again.
|
|
|
|
i386 kernel support:
|
|
better ways of accessing BIOS, i/o space. some exportable to
|
|
user space. See mach3,linux dos emulator
