== !SquirrelMail 1.5.x version roadmap and todos ==

=== On the road to 2.0 ===
(or: how to prevent our rodent from becoming roadkill)

* Finish Templating Phase 1 (see TemplatesInSquirrelMail)
* Make sure this works for an average user;
* Finish up plugins API refactoring
* Add any small-scale features, refactorings at this point;

* '''Release 1.5.2 DEVEL'''
* '''Stop accepting new features''', only bugfixes
* '''No more plugins API changes''', unless unavoidable

* Finish Templating Phase 2
* Fix bugs according to feedback on 1.5.2.
* Fix more bugs.
* Chance for plugin authors to start to adapt.

* '''Release 1.5.3 DEVEL'''
* fix bugs
* '''Release candidate 2.0 RC1'''
* fix bugs
* '''Release 2.0'''

==== Maybe in !SquirrelMail 1.5.2 ====

This would also be nice to have in 1.5.2. Anyone interested in having it, should work on it soon and make sure it's done before the templating/plugins stuff is finished. Any of this missing will not delay the release of 1.5.2.

* Calendar plugin (add sql support or move to shared_calendars)
* Change Password plugin (agree on plugin format) [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.squirrelmail.devel/5910 link] [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.squirrelmail.user/27137 link2]
* Move core plugin options to widgets
* PHP Pspell extension support in !SquirrelSpell

* Generate all fabricated URLs with a single function in order to achieve that at a later stage we can add the SID to it.
* Cut down on the number of globals we use.
** ''Assigned to everyone, while working on some code reduce or eliminate the globaling of variables.''
* (see previous point) stop passing $username and $data_dir to all getPref/setPref calls
** ''Assigned to Thijs Kinkhorst''

Under discussion:
* {{session.use_trans_sid}}
* Add SASL authentication patch. {{gssapi}} authentication is unstable. Patch is not clean. SMTP auth is not implemented. Login changes will cause issues in other authentication methods.

Under testing:
* Create a single {{sm_init.php}} include file and cleanup all the circular {{include_once()}} and {{require_once()}} calls.
* {{session_regenerate_id()}} to avoid session hijacking.
* !HttpOnly cookies.
* Load the default configuration before main configuration file in order to make sure that expected configuration variables are set.
* Deprecate direct access to password information. {{sqauth_read_password()}} and {{sqauth_save_password()}} functions must be used instead of reading key cookie and onetimepad session variable. {{$key}} and {{$onetimepad}} should not be globalized, if scripts don't need them.

Finished:
* Globalize error handler and template code
* Remove all development documentation from tarball.

=== The Marc Groot Koerkamp project list ===

(Not decided when to be released.)

Current projects of mine inside !SquirrelMail:

* Creating base utility classes;
* Creating a generic messages class for different backends (IMAP, NNTP);
* Creating IMAP backend for the messages class.

To Do list !SquirrelMail:

* Rewrite of configuration system;
* Creating a Persistor class;
* Creating a compose class;
* Creating a generic !SquirrelMail Contacts class;
* Implementing Mime base class where mime-handlers/content-type can be hooked in.

Personal Wishlist:

* Adding support for Kroupware and/or opengroupware.org in order to add (i/v)Calendar support and Contact support. Requirement for this is a working Mime-base class;
* Advanced !SquirrelMail frontends that retrieves data throught XML-RPC or SOAP.
