TODO
====
Most things which used to be in here were moved to
[xen-tools' issue tracker at GitHub](https://github.com/xen-tools/xen-tools/issues).
Bugs to fix and features to add for 5.0
---------------------------------------
* Fix xdm and gdm roles wrt. to uptodate package names.
* Test and support more file system types.
Actually this should be pretty simple now that the parameters are
stored in the configuration hash.
* Setup locales in the hooks?
Currently no locales are set and this causes several domU errors
which appear in the domU's logs.
* Generic grub support
This will generate a much nicer `menu.lst` as a side effect, as its
currently generated once at install, and is never updated. Installing
a full grub into the domU should update the `menu.lst` every time a
new kernel is installed and will also use the domU distro's `menu.lst`
conform.
* More generic roles
Deploy a web server or setup ssmtp directly via flag when setting up
the machine. Open to suggestions, should just be some general use-cases
that are fairly common.
* Sections for the xen-tools.conf file
Currently it's really annoying when you are trying to create VMs
on multiple subnets. It would be nice to specify with a flag what
"type" of configuration you want, and a set of options specific to
that flag could be parsed from xen-tools.conf
* Parse numerical parameters transparently for the user
The user shouldn't have to know whether he should specify size as
`<size>G` or `<size>Gb` or `<size>`. This should be parsed without
user interaction and rely on a common format.
* Make used Xen toolstack configurable, i.e. via --xen-toolstack=xl
* Add test for `--size` constraints (upper- and lowercase letters,
with and without `B`, etc.)
* Needs a `--dry-run` or `--check-constraints` option in
`xen-create-image` first. Which probably both would be a good
idea.
* Maybe check for `vsyscall=emulate` in `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT`
in `/etc/default/grub` if trying to install an affected Linux
distribution.
Stuff from Steve's TODO list / Generic TODOs
--------------------------------------------
* Write more test cases.
* `xen-delete-image` should unallocate any used IP addresses.
