90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: Things to work on:
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku: * Rework the code underlying the test target to clone the repository
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku:   and workspace before running tests, to avoid modifying the
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku:   development repository by accident.
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku: 
4bf5cf121e 2007-08-26       aku: * Update the testsuite to the current design and implementation of
4bf5cf121e 2007-08-26       aku:   fossil.
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: * Think about exposure of functionality as libraries, i.e. Tcl
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   packages. Foundations like delta, etc. first, work up to
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   higher-levels.
4e02d677c2 2008-02-04       aku:   => Mark Janssen has started on this.
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: * Document the merge algorithm.
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: * Document the xfer protocol.
103c397e4b 2007-08-28       aku: 
103c397e4b 2007-08-28       aku: * CVS import. Testcases: Tcl, Tk, Tcllib.
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku: 
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku: Questions
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku: 
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku: * In the timeline seen at http://fossil-scm.hwaci.com/fossil/timeline
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku:   the manifest uuids are links to pages providing additional
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku:   information abut the change, differences, parent/child linkage, etc.
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku: 
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku:   The timeline accessible generated by 'fossil server' and accessible
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku:   at http://localhost:8080/timeline however does not have such links.
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku: 
464a46dad2 2007-08-26       aku:   One wonders why ?
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: General ideas:
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: * Use TLS/SSL in the xfer module to enhance privacy of
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   communications. Integrity too, however that is also handled in the
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   fossil protocol itself.
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   Possibility: OpenSSL.
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   Dis: Library is large, makes self-containment of fossil difficult.
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   Adv: Known library, proven? design/robustness/implementation? -> Marketing
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   Possibility: Tcl 8.5+extended libtom* functionality
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   Dis: New implementation, less proven
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   Adv: More selfcontained.
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   Possibility: lib-gnupg

90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: * Talk to Mark Roseman about his Projectforum system and its
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:     suitability as the wiki component. And in reverse the possibility
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:     of using Fossil as the version engine underneath ProjectForum.
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: * Talk to Colin McCormack / Kevin Kenny about usability of Fossil as
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   version engine underneath Tcler's Wiki, and also for the wiki
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   itself. (Note: Chat message by kbk showed that he is aware of
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   fossil).

90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: *  Stephen Huntley - tdelta (tclvfs, versioned filesystem, see also
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:    http://wiki.tcl.tk/12803), compare against delta here.
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: 
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku: * fts2 as is is difficult to use in fossil. Indexing currently
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   requires the blob data to be fully visible, counter to the extensive
90f8319a32 2007-08-25       aku:   use of compression (delta,zlib) in repositories.
