* 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)
+* NNTP COMPRESS extension (see innd)
+
+* Support more of RFC 3977 (NNTP)
+
* Combined "super server" for NNTP/HTTP/POP3 to reduce memory overhead
-* Optional reply-to-list support for mirroring lists that want it :<
- 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
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)
-* handle messages with multiple Message-IDs
+* handle messages with multiple Message-IDs (done for v2, doable for v1)
* handle broken double-bracketed References properly (maybe)
and totally broken Message-IDs
* 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)
+
+* EPOLLEXCLUSIVE for listen socket fairness across -httpd/nntpd
+ worker processes.
* improve documentation
* linkify thread skeletons better

-* generate sample CSS for use with Stylish/dillo/etc
+* generate sample CSS for use with userContent.css/dillo/etc
* streaming Email::MIME replacement: currently we generate many
allocations/strings for headers we never look at and slurp
* more and better test cases (use git fast-import to speed up creation)
* large mbox/Maildir/MH/NNTP spool import (see PublicInbox::Import)
+
+* Optionally allow indexing Xapian without positional information to
+ save space (but prevents "quoted phrase" searching).
+
+* Allow NNTP and more of PSGI code to work without Xapian
+
+* Read-only WebDAV interface to the git repo so it can be mounted
+ via davfs2 or fusedav to avoid full clones.
+ davfs2 needs Range: request support for this to be feasible:
+ https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?33259
+ https://savannah.nongnu.org/support/?107649
+
+* Contribute something like IMAP IDLE for "git fetch".
+ Inboxes (and any git repos) can be kept up-to-date without
+ relying on polling.
+
+* Expose targeted reindexing of individual messages.
+ Sometimes an indexing bug only affects a handful of messages,
+ so it's not worth the trouble of doing a full reindex.
+
+* code repository integration (with cgit, gitweb, etc...)
