CRITICAL
========

- Improve FAQ, docs (ongoing..)
- Integrated test suite (I'm so lazy..)
- Sweedish, Russian etc. characters showing as ? in the log - many complaints.
- Check re-entrancy of usage of vsf_sysutil_exit_func.
- Fix SSL session timeout more gracefully.
- Use SSL_peek (surely pipelining won't work with current SSL code?)

NOT SO CRITICAL
===============

- Implict SSL support (port 990?)
- Do something with client certs.
- Add CHLD handler to priv parent process to take care of session crashes?
- Send until EOF is really reached (not the case with sendfile mode).
- lock the files being modified?
- Still reports FlashFXP broken when trying to do FXP.
- Add negation, other support to regex handler.
- Fix SIGHUP config file reload to correctly reset _removed_ settings to
their default values.
- Allow listener to listen on multiple IPs; bonus points if the different
IPs can have different configs.
- Upload file size limits.
- Allow groups to be listed in user lists.
- Allow space in username.
- Minor: background should happen after listen has completed so that failure
can result in a non-zero exit code.
- Better reporting of failed uploads due to out of device space or quota all
used.
- option to chroot to home dir and THEN apply init_dir
- pasv_addr_file option (patch from Adam Luter)
- separate upload/download max rates
- select() is assuming Linux behaviour (not threatening stability)
- add example global bandwidth limiting.
- switch to new signal model

ON THE BACK BURNER
==================

- MLST, MLSD
- LPRT, LPSV
- Small race: signal might come in just before we start a blocking call
- log logout (pam session support provides this for locals)
- Limits on GIDs allowed to authenticate?
- Dynamic login info e.g. you are user XXX of YYY.
- Handle SIGINT.
- Session byte transfer counts in STAT output.
- Mac OS X setgroups() issue (report of success with 10.3.4, maybe OS X bug
has been fixed?)
- Fix for systems with no IPv6 (e.g. Solaris 7) (I'm only getting limited
numbers of these reports)
- Look into using GnuTLS in place of OpenSSL (more compatible license).
- put anon FTP users in wtmp too?
- Test vsftpd with pam_opie (issues with challenge/response vs. FTP protocol?)
- SITE GROUP support.
- SITE UTIME?

NOT PLANNED
===========

- telnet strings (no demand)
- "Minimal" build support
- transparent tar / compression support (no demand)
