+Programming:
+- Grep for 'XXX' comments and fix
+
+- Link order is incorrect for some systems using Kerberos 4 and AFS. Result
+ is multiple inclusion of DES symbols. Holger Trapp
+ <holger.trapp@hrz.tu-chemnitz.de> reports that changing the configure
+ generated link order from:
+ -lresolv -lkrb -lz -lnsl -lutil -lkafs -lkrb -ldes -lcrypto
+ to:
+ -lresolv -lkrb -lz -lnsl -lutil -lcrypto -lkafs -lkrb -ldes
+ fixing the problem.
+
+- Write a test program that calls stat() to search for EGD/PRNGd socket
+ rather than use the (non-portable) "test -S".
+
+- Replacement for setproctitle() - HP-UX support only currently
+
+- Handle changing passwords for the non-PAM expired password case
+
+- Improve PAM support (a pam_lastlog module will cause sshd to exit)
+ and maybe support alternate forms of authenications like OPIE via
+ pam?
+
+- Rework PAM ChallengeResponseAuthentication
+ - Use kbdint request packet with 0 prompts for informational messages
+ - Use different PAM service name for kbdint vs regular auth (suggest from
+ Solar Designer)
+ - Ability to select which ChallengeResponseAuthentications may be used
+ and order to try them in e.g. "ChallengeResponseAuthentication skey, pam"
+
+- Complete Tru64 SIA support
+ - It looks like we could merge it into the password auth code to cut down
+ on diff size. Maybe PAM password auth too?
+
+- Finish integrating kernel-level auditing code for IRIX and SOLARIS
+ (Gilbert.r.loomis@saic.com)
+
+- sftp-server: Rework to step down to 32bit ints if the platform
+ lacks 'long long' == 64bit (Notable SCO w/ SCO compiler)
+
+- Linux hangs for 20 seconds when you do "sleep 20&exit". All current
+ solutions break scp or leaves processes hanging around after the ssh
+ connection has ended. It seems to be linked to two things. One
+ select() under Linux is not as nice as others, and two the children
+ of the shell are not killed on exiting the shell. Redhat have an excellent
+ description of this in their RPM package.
+
+- Build an automated test suite
+
+- 64-bit builds on HP-UX 11.X (stevesk@pobox.com):
+ - utmp/wtmp get corrupted (something in loginrec?)
+ - can't build with PAM (no 64-bit libpam yet)
+
+Documentation:
+- More and better
+
+- Install FAQ?
+
+- General FAQ on S/Key, TIS, RSA, RSA2, DSA, etc and suggestions on when it
+ would be best to use them.
+
+- Create a Documentation/ directory?
+
+Clean up configure/makefiles:
+- Clean up configure.ac - There are a few double #defined variables
+ left to do. HAVE_LOGIN is one of them. Consider NOT looking for
+ information in wtmpx or utmpx or any of that stuff if it's not detected
+ from the start
+
+- Fails to compile when cross compile.
+ (vinschen@redhat.com)
+
+- Replace the whole u_intXX_t evilness in acconfig.h with something better???
+
+- Consider splitting the u_intXX_t test for sys/bitype.h into seperate test
+ to allow people to (right/wrongfully) link against Bind directly.
+
+- Consider splitting configure.ac into seperate files which do logically
+ similar tests. E.g move all the type detection stuff into one file,
+ entropy related stuff into another.
+
+Packaging:
+- Solaris: Update packaging scripts and build new sysv startup scripts
+ Ideally the package metadata should be generated by autoconf.
+ (gilbert.r.loomis@saic.com)
+
+- HP-UX: Provide DEPOT package scripts.
+ (gilbert.r.loomis@saic.com)
