Background ========== - Priority scale: High, Medium and Low - Complexity scale: C1, C2, C4 and C8. The complexity scale is exponential, with complexity 1 being the lowest complexity. Complexity is a function of both task 'complexity' and task 'scope'. Core ==== - Session API implementation Priority: High Complexity: C4 Owner: Daniel Wagner Owner: Patrik Flykt The session API should provide a connection abstraction in order to prioritize applications network accesses, prevent or allow network and bearer roaming, or provide applications with a way to request for periodic network connections. On-demand connections will be implemented through this API as well. See http://www.mail-archive.com/connman@connman.net/msg01653.html - Personal firewall Priority: Low Complexity: C8 Owner: Tomasz Bursztyka Discuss and implement a basic and safe firewalling strategy into Connman. Provide a D-Bus API for personal firewalling. - PACRunner extensions Priority: Low Complexity: C4 Support more URI schemes, support multiple connections, tighter security integration. - Check logging produced by connman_info() Priority: Medium Complexity: C1 Check that logging produced by connman_info() contains meaningful messages and get rid of the unnecessary ones. - Disable logging to syslog when run in foreground Priority: Medium Complexity: C1 When ConnMan is run in foreground mode, disable logging to syslog. If not disabled, systemd will log everything twice, once via syslog and once on standard error. - Favorite service migration removal Priority: Medium Complexity: C1 When: 12/2012 Remove service migration code that moves services from default.profile to the current directory-based structure. - Support for multiple agents Priority: Medium Complexity: C2 Allow to register multiple agents. Each unique system bus name owner however is only allowed to register one agent. The selection of which agents is used should be matched by bus name owner if possible or first come first serve. A graceful fallback to the next agent should be also used in case of malfunctional agents. - Remove --nobacktrace option Priority: Medium Complexity: C1 When: 2.0 Remove the --nobacktrace option or change it to --backtrace depending on the level of systemd integration or other factors. WiFi ==== - Clean up WiFi data structure usage Priority: Medium Complexity: C2 Struct wifi_data is passed as a pointer in some of the wifi plugin callbacks. For example removing a WiFi USB stick causes RTNL and wpa_supplicant to call the wifi plugin at the same time causing the freeing of the wifi data structure. Fix up the code to have proper reference counting or other handling in place for the shared wifi data and the members in the data structure. - EAP-AKA/SIM Priority: Medium Complexity: C2 Owner: Samuel Ortiz This EAP is needed for SIM card based network authentication. ConnMan here plays a minor role: Once wpa_supplicant is set up for starting and EAP-AKA/SIM authentication, it will talk to a SIM card through its pcsc-lite API. - EAP-FAST Priority: Low Complexity: C1 - WiFi p2p Priority: Medium Complexity: C2 - Removing wpa_supplicant 0.7.x legacy support Priority: Low Complexity: C1 Owner: Tomasz Bursztyka Removing global country property setter in gsupplicant, and removing wifi's technology set_regdom implementation. Removing autoscan fallback. (Note: should be done around the end 2012) Bluetooth ========= Cellular ======== VPN === - IPsec Priority: Medium Complexity: C4 Owner: Jukka Rissanen WiMAX ===== - WiMAX removal Priority: Medium Complexity: C1 When: 12/2012 WiMAX plugin is unmaintained. Remove WiMAX plugin, service type definitions and associated code. Tools ===== - Add Agent mode to connmanctl command line tool Priority: Medium Complexity: C2 connmanctl should implement agent prompting when started with a suitable command line option. Agent mode should also be enabled when in interactive mode. User Interface ============== - GNOME3 UI Priority: Low Complexity: C4 Owner: Alok Barsode A GNOME3 shell user interface would make it easier for mainstream distros users to use ConnMan.
