1 These are random snippets that should give developers a clue of what we have
2 to fix before the next release.
4 Beware: It's totally unsorted ;)
6 ================================================================================
7 - Once and for all fix the way displayName is used in KopeteContact. With
8 serverside contact lists it's now impossible to rename contacts on the server
9 because some people (e.g. Olivier) want to see the nickname that a user
10 assigned and others (e.g. Martijn) want to ALWAYS see the display name of the
12 displayName and nickName should be split and depending on the user's prefs
13 displayName() should return either MC->displayName() or nickName().
15 - Add a way to detect when a protocol goes offline involuntary. In that case
16 try a reconnect first and only leave the protocol offline if the reconnect
17 fails. Alternatively, retry reconnecting with increasing intervals.
18 -> PARTLY DONE, see KopeteAccount::disconnect() functions
20 - Prevent attempting to send while offline where appropriate
24 - Save the account order in the config file (IMPORTANT)
26 - Interface for application invitations, and better filetransfers support
32 ================================================================================
35 OSCAR ICQ/AIM TODO ITEMS
37 OSCAR in general========================================================
38 - somehow sync server and local list, this is not as trivial as everybody
39 always thinks it is because you cannot sure if local changes or
40 serverside-changes caused the difference (think about two clients being used
41 for the same account, one at home and one at work).
42 Update: Actually it might be possible by saving two timestamp/size values
43 for the account. Serverside and local values.
44 Also I'm much in favor of hindering the user from offline editing the
46 X save groupID in KopeteGroups
47 X make renaming serverside contacts possible
48 (should work if kopete groupname == serverside groupname)
49 X Base Buffer class on something like QDataStream (if possible),
50 I don't like all the pointer stuff in here
51 X get rid of AIMContactList, AIMBuddy (almost gone already) and AIMGroup.
53 ICQ specific ===========================================================
54 X support simple icq type-2 messages so we can send/receive away
55 messages (yes, I even see this as a point for not releasing 0.7, away
56 messages ARE important or else I could take out away modes altogether)
57 X prevent passwords longer than 8 chars, it upsets the server
58 - general support for SNAC (0x15,y)
62 X honor encodings for both sides (done but incomplete)
63 - Option: Allow access from contacts on my contact list only
65 (signals: KopeteMetaContact::movedToGroup, addedToGroup, removedToGroup)
66 I'm not sure what this item means, none of the other protocols listen to
68 - ignore lists (needs proper group-handling)
69 - invisible list (needs proper group-handling)
70 - support sending all of your own icq userinfo to the server,
71 it's easy to do but a lot of of boring work
73 AIM specific ===========================================================
74 - Nothing in here yet, I'd appreciate somebody with more extensive use
75 of AIM to take over just that part of the plugin.
78 ================================================================================
81 MSN TODO (for the Kopete 1.0 release)
82 ---------------------------------------
84 - Handle the MSN PLUS! color codes
85 - Show internals messages in chat window when filetransfers (go with
86 the new interface for invitation in libkopete)
88 - Search for an MSN User (not for Kopete 1.0)
90 ================================================================================
95 User Interface =========================================================
96 - Check that Ui::{DesignerWidget} variables allocated on the heap are
97 always deleted in the destructor.
98 - Go through all the ui4 files and set the tab order
99 - Some Ui files contained icon data, which is no longer embedded in
100 designer4 file. Use kde icons or Qt's resource system instead.
102 General ================================================================
103 - K Replacement for QTreeWidget, QTreeWidgetItem?
104 - Remove const char* argument from plugin constructors
105 (needs changed KParts::ComponentsFactory)
106 - Go through the debug ouput and look for failed QObject::connect()
107 - Eliminate as many setObjectName() calls as necessary
110 =================================================================================
