  Initial release will no longer feature SSH auth, distrend will handle auth telnet-style. User registration will be done via PHP.
 

	
 
Build
 

	
 
General
 
=-documenation: manpages
 
=-runtime support: should we eventually just go with APR, glib, maybe something from suckless people? Is libdaemon (or whatever's out there) useful?
 
=-XML (XML-RPC): useful as a communication protocol? as RPC protocol? see atheme; useful as job description format possibly.
 
*-remoteio: figure out how to handle communications; async + callbacks seems the best method to me atm
 

	
 
Master
 
*=Add lockout of slaves below a certain version
 
*-Complete testing with interactive test mode
 
 -update frame assigner to distribute some frames for lower-priority jobs when there's a higher priority job
 
?-make frame assigner not assign frames beyond the amount of frames in a single job
 
B-Add calls to remotio -> make API for sending messages ~= a function for every type of message defined in protocol.h
 
 -Write a stub for getting info from the tarball/validifying the tarball. Read distren-job.xml, a file in the tarball, to find out 1. which rendering system to use (that system, e.g. blender/povray, can read more specifics, such as name of file to pass to blender and frames. Options common between different systems will be handled in common as best as possible)
 
 -Write a stub for publishing file and constructing job description so that the job can be shared
 
*-Other XML-writing/reading such as current stats / jobs / data / etc, xml writing for job creation, ...
 
=-XML-RPC cgi interface for obtaining info
 
B-XML-RPC interface for obtaining info
 
=-charsets: the program should operate in UTF-8. This is partially required by libxml2's (and XML's) usage of UTF-8. We want the program's internal charset to be UTF-8 and figure out if we need w_char/whatever to fulfill UTF-8. I don't believe we do... mabye we just need a declaration that al data stored must be in UTF-8 format. -> we need to consider how charsets work when and if issues come up
 
M-explain members of struct general_info; e.g., what is timestamp used for, what's the point of the hibernate var, etc.
 
*-resolve conflict between liblist and libmysqlclient
 
*-figure out delete-during-traversal for liblist
 
 
 
Slave
 
 -Fix current bugs
 
*-Currently distrencommon.conf is not created slave-side
 
*-Add calls to remoteio, once it works or even before it works -> write message API functions and API
 
=-Make code more flexible for different types of jobs and operating systems (such as paths, libs, etc)
 
=-Add code to allow pausing/resuming of the slave (including a running blender process) -> signal handling (SIGTSTP vs. SIGSTOP), distrenslave_control cmdline interface
 
B-Add tmpdir variable (just like the datadir variable) that is compile-time or whatever -> simple API to allow configuration-file override while taking into account defaults set by ./configure
 
*-Finish stub to delete old job data and output
 
=-Upload finished frames' output files while rendering subsequent frames
