* POP3 server, since some webmail providers support external POP3:

+ Perhaps make this depend solely the NNTP server and work as a proxy.
+ Meaning users can run this without needing a full copy of the
+ archives in a git repository.
+
+* HTTP and NNTP proxy support. Allow us to be a frontend for
+ firewalled off (or Tor-exclusive) instances. The use case is
+ for offering a publically accessible IP with a cheap VPS,
+ yet storing large amounts of data on computers without a
+ public IP behind a home Internet connection.
* TLS support for various daemons (including STARTTLS for NNTP and POP3)
-* Unix socket support for HTTP and POP3 server for use behind reverse
- proxies like nginx
+* NNTP COMPRESS extension (see innd)
* Combined "super server" for NNTP/HTTP/POP3 to reduce memory overhead
Reply-to-list encourages the existing list as a single-point-of-failure,
but having an extra mirror using public-inbox code is nice regardless.
+* Optional reply-to-nobody for dead lists.
+
* Configurable linkification for per-inbox shorthands:
"$gmane/123456" could be configured to expand to the
appropriate link pointing to the gmane.org list archives,
the links should point to an anchor tag within the same page,
instead; giving the user options.
-* implement RFC 4685 (Atom message threading)
-
* configurable constants (index limits, search results)
-* use tags as date-based skiplists for navigating history
- (maybe not needed with Xapian support nowadays?)
+* handle messages with multiple Message-IDs (how?)
+
+* handle broken double-bracketed References properly (maybe)
+ and totally broken Message-IDs
-* handle Xapian date range queries:
- http://mid.gmane.org/20151005222157.GE5880@survex.com
+ cf. https://public-inbox.org/git/20160814012706.GA18784@starla/
-* Consider storing git blob ID in Xapian doc data to avoid ref
- and tree lookups based on Message-Id.
+* portability to FreeBSD (and other Free Software *BSDs)
+ ugh... https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=116615
+ (IO::KQueue is broken with Danga::Socket)
+
+* improve documentation
+
+* linkify thread skeletons better
+ https://public-inbox.org/git/6E3699DEA672430CAEA6DEFEDE6918F4@PhilipOakley/
+
+* generate sample CSS for use with Stylish/dillo/etc
* streaming Email::MIME replacement: currently we generate many
allocations/strings for headers we never look at and slurp
entire message bodies into memory.
(this is pie-in-the-sky territory...)
-* Allow in-place Xapian updates without clobbering the whole
- index (versioning each doc data entry?) for big archives
-
* use REQUEST_URI properly for CGI / mod_perl2 compatibility
with Message-IDs which include '%' (done?)
-* more test cases (use git fast-import to speed up creation)
+* more and better test cases (use git fast-import to speed up creation)
-* large mbox/Maildir/MH/NNTP spool import (use git fast-import)
+* large mbox/Maildir/MH/NNTP spool import (see PublicInbox::Import)
