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 <daniel.wagner@bmw-carit.de>
   Owner: Patrik Flykt <patrik.flykt@linux.intel.com>

   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


- main.conf FallbackTimeservers, FallbackNameservers
   Priority: Medium
   Complexity: C2
   Owner:

   Both entries should take a string list as arguments and can contain
   mixed combination of fully qualified domain names, IPv4 and IPv6
   addresses. In absence of main.conf or if this entry is not present
   then no fallback servers are used. These configuration file values
   will obsolete plugins/meego.c and plugins/google.c.
   See http://lists.connman.net/pipermail/connman/2012-March/008605.html


- main.conf DefaultAutoConnectTechnologies
   Priority: Medium
   Complexity: C2
   Owner:

   The default autoconnect value for a new service that has not been seen. After
   that it can be changed on a per service level via AutoConnect property.
   The default value if not present should be "ethernet,wifi".
   See http://lists.connman.net/pipermail/connman/2012-March/008605.html


- main.conf PriorityTechnologies
   Priority: Medium
   Complexity: C2
   Owner: Patrik Flykt <patrik.flykt@linux.intel.com>

   Handle automatic switch from one technology to another one. By default
   this value should be empty and no automatic switching is happening as
   long as technology is connected. The list is ordered.
   See http://lists.connman.net/pipermail/connman/2012-March/008605.html


- Personal firewall

   Priority: Low
   Complexity: C8
   Owner: Tomasz Bursztyka <tomasz.bursztyka@linux.intel.com>

   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.



WiFi
====

- EAP-AKA/SIM

   Priority: Medium
   Complexity: C2
   Owner: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>

   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


- Wireless background scan

   Priority: Medium
   Complexity: C4
   Owner: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>

   While connected ConnMan should offload the background scanning to
   wpa_supplicant. Wpa_supplicant allows for a fancy background scan
   which frequency increases after the current connection signal level
   drops below a defined threshold.
   We should also be able to have wpa_supplicant do the background
   scanning for us when we're not connected, if we have configured our
   favorite networks.


- WiFi p2p

   Priority: Medium
   Complexity: C2



Bluetooth
=========

- DUN client

   Priority: Low
   Complexity: C4
   Owner: Mario Tokarz <mario.tokarz@bmw-carit.de>



Cellular
========


VPN
===

- IPsec

   Priority: Medium
   Complexity: C4
   Owner: Jukka Rissanen <jukka.rissanen@linux.intel.com>


Tools
=====

- Command line tool

   Priority: Low
   Complexity: C4
   Owner: Patrik Flykt <patrik.flykt@linux.intel.com>

   For platforms not running python, it could prove useful to provide them
   with a native single binary command line tool.


User Interface
==============

- GNOME3 UI

   Priority: Low
   Complexity: C4
   Owner: Alok Barsode <alok.barsode@linux.intel.com>

   A GNOME3 shell user interface would make it easier for mainstream distros
   users to use ConnMan.
