-GENERAL PROJECT TODO
---------------------
-
-1. Implement more interfaces/backends [ongoing]
-2. Write More extensive Test Suites [ongoing]
-3. Document API's [ongoing]
-4. Document Limitations/Assumptions.
-6. Encourage people to build cool GUI's using
-   our libs. (any GTK wiz's out here ..)
-8. More safe checking during function calls (in rig_* wrappers).
-13. ~/.hamlibrc and /etc/hamlibrc preferences file
-14. Write the list of all functions that should be in the API
-18. rewrite the post_write_delay. Active delay is a waste of cycles! [need test]
-23. add support in the API for additional filters, DSP bandpass control
-25. Write aclocal .m4 macro helpers for autoconf support [need test]
-26. Write rig protocol simulator so no hardware is involved with Hamlib testing
-27. complete memory bank support
-28. add rig_srch_ctcss, rig_srch_dcs, etc.
-29. emulate get_stuff (caching) if backend has no support for it
-30. Write perl/python/etc. modules [ongoing]
-
-DONE
-----
-
-5. Build top level Makefile for maintenance
-
-7. Move common routines to a common area
-   and avoid duplication.
-
-9. If read from rig takes > "n" seconds, then no longer
-   block on read, just return error.
-
-10. Improve Makefiles (autoconf?)
-
-12. Add general rig capabilities handling. see rig.h
-
-15. Handle retransmissions (no more than n) if timeout (->backends)
-16. Write .spec (rpm) and .deb (debian) package files
-
-17a. Add support for a configurable debug level (none, function calls,
-	packet traces)
-
-17b. In serial.c (and non serial too), use buffered IO instead of read/write,
-	for better performance. Use flushing with fwrite.
-
-18. Get Git updates mailed to our hamlib-cvs-digest list
-19. specify how to access Reverse modes (CWR, RTTYR). through set_mode?
-22. handle nicely different versions of same rig coming for
-	ITU region1/region2 ham band (-> freq ranges in capabilities)
-
-11. Add some scanning routines [ 1.1.2? ]
-
-20. adapt API include files to support C++ (__BEGIN_DECLS/__END_DECLS, etc.)
-21. grab cygwin and test portability under Win32 (what about MacOS?)
-24. Should Hamlib (the library itself) be LGPL'ed ?
-31. Add some antenna tuner support
-33. Merge dumpmem/dumpcaps into rigctl
-32. Document C++/tcltk bindings, complete Hamlib API documentation using doxygen
