To Do List for neon                                      -*- text -*-
===================

Please submit feature requests to <mailto:neon@webdav.org>

For one-point-oh
----------------

40. XML body acceptance callback should check Content-Type. Should
    also pass encoding to expat if one is given (how about libxml?).
    Recent mod_dav's return XML bodies in 424 responses which need
    parsing properly.

44. Finer-grained connection status feedback, i.e., "Sent Request",
    "Got response status-line"... "Reading response body"

Longer term
-----------

2. Add proper domain support to authentication code. (requires full
   URI parsing support). Need to tell the auth layer the server
   details.

6. PUT with ranges... ne_put_range

9. DeltaV support (http://www.webdav.org/deltav/). See also the
   subversion project (http://subversion.tigris.org/) who might build
   a versioning system over DAV.

14. Improved request-header manipulation... some kind of indexed table
    (a la Apache, libghttp, so we're sure we don't add the same header
    to the request twice.  Better control over adding Cache-Control
    headers would be good too.

21. Storing multiple authentication "sessions" within an actual
    auth_session, so I can log into e.g. /foo/ and /bar/ (which are
    not in the same authentication domain) and switch between them
    without having to re-enter passwords all the time.

46. Asynchronous request-dispatching? Makes integration into GUI loop
    easy... any other reasons?  Must leave existing request_dispatch
    interface intact.

50. opendir/readdir/closedir-esque interface for PROPFIND depth 1, 
    a la EZDAV. (cadaver has it already)

66. Useful for subversion/ra_dav:

    - a hook which runs *after* the response headers are read,
      but *before* the response body is read
