The following are items known to be in progress, and, where available, a point of contact.
-- [[DisconnectedOperation]] provides the ability to use AFS while not connected to a network.
+- [[WindowsIFS]] -- Implement AFS as a Windows installable file system instead of as a virtual SMB server. In Progress. Contact [[JeffreyAltman]]
+
+- [[WindowsAFSServers]] - Stabilize the AFS Servers running on Microsoft Windows. Contact [[JeffreyAltman]]
-- [[NestedGroups]] allows PTS groups to have other groups as members. Waiting for [[OpenAFS]] port.
+- [[DisconnectedOperation]] provides the ability to use AFS while not connected to a network.
-- [[FreeBSDPort]] -- Server ported. No cache manager support yet available.
+- [[FreeBSDPort]] -- Server ported. Cache manager available, not stable yet.
-- [[HPUX11Port|Main/HP-UP11Port]] -- Missing RX code reconstructed. Waiting on kernel header from HP. Contact [[DerrickBrashear]].
+- [[HPUX11Port|Main/HP-UX11Port]] -- Missing RX code reconstructed. Header needed, available from HP. Available in 1.2.10.
- [[NetBSDPort]] -- No timeline available.
-- [[OpenBSDPort]] -- In progress. No cache manager support yet available.
+- [[OpenBSDPort]] -- In progress. Cache manager available, not stable yet.
- [[AutoConf]] with automake too. In progress. Contact [[DerrickBrashear]].
-- [[DynamicRoot]] (/afs) support utilizing AFSDB DNS resource records is available for all UNIX ports. Windows includes similar [[FreelanceClient]] support.
+- [[AmandaBackup]] -- Support for backup using [Amanda](http://www.amanda.org). In progress. Contact [[MitchCollinsworth]].
+
+- [[BetterDocumentation]] -- Contact [[RussAllbery]]
-- [[AtSysConfig]] allows @sys expansion from a list. Substantially complete. Contact [[TedMcCabe]].
+- [[MaemoPort]] -- Porting to the Nokia N8x0 Internet Tablet. Contact [[DerrickBrashear]] or [[JasonEdgecombe]]
## <a name="Proposed Projects"></a> Proposed Projects
The following are items which have been proposed, but which are not yet in progress. A point of contact is included where appropriate.
-- [[BetterDocumentation]] -- Contact [[EstherFilderman]].
-
-- IPv6
-
-- [[KerberosV]] -- Support Kerberos version 5 and additional encryption type support. Contact [[JeffreyHutzelman]]
-
-- [[LargeFiles]] -- Support for files over 2GB. The concensus seems to be that beyond supporting big files, large volumes already work fine.
+- [[SupportIPv6]]
- [[MultipleClones]] provides support for more than one backup and read-only volume for a single read/write.
- [[VolumeDumpEditor]] -- Need tool to allow editing volume dumps.
-- [[WindowsIFS]] -- Implement AFS as a Windows installable file system instead of as a virtual SMB server.
-
- [[BetterServerPreferences]] allow selectable continuous or on-demand server preferences in clients based on available information about Rx connection round trip times instead of classful networking approach currently used. Contact [[DerrickBrashear]]. _Do this for vldb servers too, or is that a separate project? [[TedAnderson]]_
-- NFSTranslator -- Create an AFS/NFS translator for [[OpenAFS]] because there were licensing issues with the code in the IBM/Transarc product. A shell of one for Solaris only is in the source tree but needs more work before it will be useful. Contact [[DerrickBrashear]]. Another approach is a user-mode implementation. Contact [[JeffreyHutzelman]].
+- [[NFSTranslatorServer]] -- Create an AFS/NFS translator for [[OpenAFS]] because there were licensing issues with the code in the IBM/Transarc product. A Solaris-only version will be supported with and after 1.2.8. Another approach is a user-mode implementation. Contact [[JeffreyHutzelman]].
- [[PartitionUUID]] -- Create partition UUIDs such that the vldb can be rapdily updated if a disk is moved from one machine to another. Contact [[DerrickBrashear]].
+- [[ByteRangeLocks]] would improve support for applications that use them especially those on Windows platforms.
+
+\* Revamping the Callback mechanism. See discussion on afs3-standardization at openafs.org mailing list.
+
+- [[AutomatedTests]] - Have buildbot automatically run unit tests on a regular basis. Contact [[JasonEdgecombe]]
