-Stuff we _need_ before beta launch:
+Remaining issues for 0.2:
-* basic notdhcp polishing
+* finish firmware for extender node antennas (juul: nearly there, need to finalize hook scripts)
-* finish firmware for extender node antennas
+* notdhcp polishing (needs protection from shell script injection, could use UDP checksum)
-* Routerboard admin UI should be able to push settings changes to extender nodes
+* Fix tunneldigger DNS churning (maxb/alex - may already be fixed?)
-* Better interface and security for node database
+* Documentation for new architecture (matt and juul made some illustrations)
-* Deal with situations where internet is not shared or not present. (juul)
+* '''This list is probably complete'''
-* Implement remote password reset (via h.sudomesh.org)
-* Implement error reporting in web admin interface
+Remaining issues for 0.3:
-* Set up a remote monitoring solution
+* New home node web UI working (juul)
-* Implement a remote logging/monitoring solution
+* Deal with solitary node (no other nodes connected) by disabling the open network (including SSID broadcast)
-** Nodewatcher 2 looks like it's not going to be ready for test deployments
+* Improve Web UI
-** Right now we can probably just incorporate the Makenode db with some fairly simple cacti+graphite+icinga
+** Extender nodes should be manageable from home node web UI (show visible peoplesopen.net nodes, set channel, set txpower)
-* Select a wifi channel, both 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz.
+** Implement node statistics and monthly bandwidth limit for web UI
+** Allow switching of ethernet ports between extender node port, open port and private port.
+* Update documentation with new features
+* '''This list is probably incomplete. Talk to devs for more info.'''
 Issues for later versions:
-* Remote updating
+* Basic admin web UI for node database that let's you log in and list current nodes.
-* Make analog hardware watchdog for old chipset and solder to devices.
+* fake captive portal working
-* Better flexibility for notdhcp ports
+* service browser working
-* IPv6 support (possibly switching to IPv6 entirely)
+* hardware watchdog working on ar71xx
-* Figure out how to legally use lower 5 ghz frequencies
+* support for manually configured non-openwrt extender nodes
-* Set up OpenVPN on exit node.
+** Allow user to switch ethernet ports into "extender node (manual)" mode
-* Implement statistics for web admin interface.
+** Only one network (either adhoc or open) can be extended using this mode. The user must be able to select which.
-* Manual (or automatic?) speed and output power selection via web interface.
+** Set up port forwarding from home node to each manually configured extender node for web UI access, e.g. 1443 to 443 on extender node 1, etc.
+*** This can be always-on for e.g. up to 16 ports without causing problems since it is only for traffic destined for the home node IP.
+*** There should be links to the extender node web UIs from the home node web UI.
+* Apply for internet-routable IPv6 subnet and give each node their own subnet + hand out IPv6 addresses to clients
+* extender node firmware working on old atheros chipset
+* Remote firmware updates working
+** Use either DNS-SD to list and pick an update server at random or IPv6 multi-homing?
+* Remote automated root password reset (via h.sudomesh.org)
+* IPv6 support for extender nodes
+* Figure out how to legally use lower 5 ghz frequencies and ensure fancy back-off features are working
+* Run OpenVPN on exit node.
+In the future:
 * Support TDMA on Linux (Adri is working on FreeBSD support, maybe we can port).
