M optionally replace info directory with a hashed database file to reduce overhead on busy systems M batch multiple jobs to the same destination (important for pages) M bound transmit page count on a per-user basis M add type of call control for CID access control list? M restructure modem classes to support multi-class modems (e.g. class 1+2) M add faxq lock to avoid naive users starting multiple queuers BL race in queuer/Dispatcher collecting child process status (hack sleep in child to give parent time to install SIGCLD handler for now) BL aborted receives get an extra page written (use TIFFUnlinkDirectory) L change receive timeout to be based on seeing EOL code L faxmove program, analogous to lpmove L permit call type deduction logic used when answering an inbound call to be user-configurable (useful for distinctive ring)--not so important now with configurable distinctive ring support builtin O DataPort<->MicroPorte wedges when retraining after EOM X add TOD control to TSI+CID access control lists? (no, can do this with cron job that sends FIFO messages to change control list files) Since v4.0pl2 there is a new style for the collection of the bug and problem reports. If you want to hunt for bugs you may also fetch the article from the mailing-lists using the information from the "refs:" field. Please use the "report#:" if you have comments or hints to fix the problem. --------------- BH report#: 0001 problem: SIGSEGV in hfaxd after pagesend completed and faxq finished the job refs: 23/09/1996 Matthias.Apitz@SOFTCON.de 23/09/1996 sam@cthulhu.engr.sgi.com file: problemReports/0001 --------------- B report#: 0002 problem: faxconfig(1M) does not work for PostScriptTimeout: value refs: 23/09/1996 Matthias.Apitz@SOFTCON.de 23/09/1996 sam@cthulhu.engr.sgi.com file: problemReports/0001 --------------- B report#: 0003 problem: MCF/RTN bug in the Class 2/2.0 driver the modem says "+FPTS: 2,2219,0,0" which means the page isn't good, ends phase C and ends phase C and reports "+FET: 2"; HylaFAX just ignores the PPR value refs: 28/01/1997 Stefan Pettersson <spp@lysator.liu.se> 02/02/1997 Matthias.Apitz@SOFTCON.de 03/02/1997 sam@sgi.com file: problemReports/0003 --------------- BH report#: 0004 problem: Bug in faxqclean the TIFF version of the document has a ";31" or ";71" or some such appended to it, NOT the "q file" number.
