This file is mostly obsolete.  One day I will go through it and remove
the tasks that have been done, and convert any remaining tasks to
enhancement requests or bugs on SourceForge.

2001-07-14  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

	* Does "delta" handle disk-full gracefully?  (SourceForge task id
	34497).

1999-04-05  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

	* If the user specifies a list of included deltas and one of the
	manually-included deltas is NEWER than the supplied cutoff date,
	do we get the delta, or not?  (This is SourceForge task id 34490)

1998-06-02  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

	* Determine if execv("foo", argv) under glibc2 on Linux will run a
	  "foo" in the current directory.  See if unsetting $PATH makes a
	  difference.  There may be security implications here for
	  bsd/sccs.c (see try_to_exec).  (This is SourceForge task id 34491).

1998-04-08  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

	* Find out if SCO's "unget" produces any output.  We currently
	  output a SID but it looks like SCO's does not.
	  (This is SourceForge task ID 34492).

	* also, tests/prt/all-512.txt suffers from the fact that 
	  SCO does not have "prt"!    No idea if it exists
	  but lives in a funny place, etc.  
	  (This is SourceForge task ID 34493).

1998-02-08  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

	* Find out if genuine SCCS works when the s-file's name
	  contains a space.  Find out particularly if the right
	  thing happens when delta invokes diff.
	  (This is SourceForge task ID 34494)

1998-02-01  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

	* tests: Testing for binary files: 
	OK, check that "prs -d:GB:", "prs -d:BD:" and "prt -b" work OK.  
	Also check zero-length files, keyword substitution, large
	binary files.
	(SourceForge task ID 34498).
        

1998-01-25  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

	* bodyio.cc: Test what happens if the text input ends with
	  "%A", that is, the peeked character is EOF.  At the moment,
	  we ungetc(EOF); is that valid?
	  (This is SourceForge task id 34495)

	* bodyio.cc: Test for sane behaviour if we get a disk-full
	  condition while writing the body part of an SCCS file
	  with admin -i.   Especially important for text files;
	  we probably want to avoid retrying with binary encoding.
          (This is SourceForge task ID 34496)

Wed Nov 12 00:00:44 1997  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

	(This is SourceForge task ID 34487)

	* Write test cases for admin's -h, -l, -V, and -z flags.

	* Write test cases for delta's -g, -n, -p, -r, -s flags.

	* Write test cases for get's -i, -l, -lp flags.

Mon Aug  4 23:33:16 1997  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Check that Dave Bodenstab's changes also provide for running the
 	test suite under SunOS, as I suspect -- because all that was
 	required was the ability to select a shell other than /bin/sh.
	(This is SourceForge task id 34499)
	

Sat Jun 28 12:25:12 1997  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Allow the utilities to be built with a shared library containing
 	at least $(SFILE_OBJS) and $(COMMON_OBJS).  May have to provide
 	two version numbers, one for the library and one for each app.  I
 	don't expect to need/want to support user code linking against the
 	library, the intent is just to conserve disk space and perhaps
 	system memory too. [ 2000-12-03: JY: not certain if this is a 
        good plan ]
	(This is SourceForge task id 34500)

Mon May 26 14:56:52 1997  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Write tests for sact and val. (SourceForge task ID 34488).

Sun May 25 16:27:05 1997  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Complete the test cases in admin/flags.sh.
	(This is SourceForge task ID 34501).

Sat May  3 11:45:19 1997  James Youngman  <james@bugalugs.no.where>

	* Check the interaction between any -r option to get and the
	release floors and ceilings.  (SourceForge task ID 34489).

	* Write a shell script for converting SCCS files to RCS files; use
	the Bourne shell, since not everybody has the C shell [suggested
	by RMS].
	(This is SourceForge task ID 34503).
