- Bugzilla
- make it faster
- add a tag for final release in packages version
- maybe add categories
- add a script to have distant query to the bug database bypassing the web interface
- Community
- allow upload to unsupported/club
[edit] BuchanMilne
- Provide easier migration path to openldap-2.1 (either set schemacheck off, or provide script to generate ldif usable by ldapmodify to fix common problems, or both)
- Test samba3
- Test samba3
- Prepare to put samba3 in main (if samba team makes 3.0.0 final in time), and test it some more.
- Try and get some authentication setup available after install
- Try and get either Kolab or Opengroupware packaged, along with all the necessary configs to make it easy to setup. kolab rpm in progress ...
[edit] PerOyvindKarlsen
- finish Norwegian Bokmål translation of Mandrake (97% complete)
- look at Norwegian translations of OpenOffice.org, making it easy for Gwenole to merge it (also license issues? translation is GPL, while OO.o is LGPL)
- rebuilding stuff;)
- have Glide_V2 and Glide_V3 rebuilt (requires heavy patching)
- have Glide_V3-DRI and Glide_V5 fixed (it rebuilds now, but something along the road broke it.. will hopefully be fixed when I get my machine with 3Dfx running:)
- have latest binutils, gcc and glibc built for sparc (low priority, post 9.2?)
[edit] ThierryVignaud

- use set_transcient(Gtk2::Gdk::Window->foreign_new($::XID)) to have transcienness even for embedded tools
- keyboard navigation (done but won't be released until we render it the same was as mdk9.1's mcc)
- autoconvert standalone/* tools into modules, and autogenerate small wrapper upon them in order to reduce start time of tools from mcc by just requiring the needed module.

- use GnomeCanvas to get rid of truncation of big translations and still having the logo

- Add mount.cifs to 2.2.x, misc fixes
- More fixes for samba3 built with --system
- Tested samba3 as DC on LDAP backend (works, client login with profiles works, WindowsNT admin tools work to an extent, need to test more features)
- 20030822
- got local SID resolution against 2.2.x DC fixed (CVS)
- samba-3.0.0rc1 in production (with said patch) on 9.1 as member server (only files)
- 20030801
- Printer uploads and simple printing to samba3
- Kerberos authenticated smbclient3 works against win2k3 and win2k, kerberized domain joins (net3 ads join) work against win2k, but not win2k3
- Fix samba breakage due to gcc (smbmount authenticated, smbpasswd domain join, possibly more) - fixed by dropping optimisations from O2 to O1
