-*) make inb/outb work (for lilo et all). This is complete for i386 and arm.
- lilo and the pcmcia tools compile cleanly now. Othere arches,
- like powerpc, probably still need fixing.
-*) scandir.c doesn't check returns on malloc and realloc.
-*) Add in shadow support (include/shadow.h and such)
-*) Right now, getopt has different behavior when dynamically vs when
- statically linked, violating the principle of least surprise.
-*) libc/inet/resolv.c does not define or use struct _res, and res_init does
- nothing. the other res_* functions are not implemented.
-*) uClibc timezone support is stubbed out, so date(1) will show '???'
- for the timezone when compiled with uClibc.
+Erik's TODO list for the 0.9.10, which will hopefully
+take place around March 1st.
+
+Erik's current plans for uClibc 0.9.10 (which will hopefull
+be released around March 1st):
+ 1) Fix C++ global constructors/destructors
+ 2) Fix uClibc timezone support so date(1) will show a real
+ timezone, instead of just '???'
+ 3) Group all common include/bits files together to avoid
+ the current situation where there are many redundnant
+ files.
+ 4) Add struct _res support to libc/inet/resolv.c. Right now,
+ struct _res, and res_init do nothing. The other res_*
+ functions are not yet implemented. So fix that.
+ 5) Rework pwd/grp for standards compliance (and integrate
+ Jeff Garzik's key-value reading code for pwd/grp, and
+ perhaps for /etc/hosts and friends as well)
+ 6) Fix the bugs in crypt so it passes conformance tests
+ 7) Rework some?/most?/all? code that fails POSIX conformance
+ tests
+
+
+Erik's current plans for uClibc 0.9.11:
+ 1) Better configuration system (CML1 + kbuild + menuconfig)
+ 2) When fixing the config system, ensure that _every_ option
+ that is enabled or disabled is listed in uClibc_config.h
+ 3) When options are disabled, also disable them in the
+ include files as well.
+ 4) Reentrancy auditing
+ 5) Make all small objects (>~50 bytes) into either inlines or
+ into a static library
