TODO LIST AND MILESTONES
========================

o M1 (peti) [11-Jun-2001]
 - evaluation checklist for XDS and AMP
   done: 100% [-> EVAL]

o M2 (peti+rse) [25-Jun-2001]
 - design/architecture paper (authentication+encryption framework)
   (< 10KB Text + 1x Figure)
   done: 30% [-> architecture.fig]

o M3 (peti+rse) [2-Jul-2001]
 - design libxds API
   done: 100% [-> libxds/xds.h + libxds/xds.pod]

o M4 (peti) [4 weeks until 30-Jul-2001]
 - implementation of libxds library framework
   done: 100% [-> libxds/*.c]

 - implementation XDR engines for basic data types.
   done: 99% [-> everything is implemented except "double" support]

 - implementation XML engines for basic data types.
   done: 99% [-> everything is implemented except "double" support]

 - regression tests for libxds (make check)
   done: 100% [-> regression-tests/*.c]

  - XML: <int32>1234</int32>
         uint32, int64, uint64,

       - xml_encode_begin():
	 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no">
         <!DOCTYPE xds SYSTEM "http://www.ossp.org/pkg/xds/xds-xml.dtd">
         <xds>

       - xml_encode_end():
         </xds>
 - UFT-8 RFC: rfc2279.txt

    Escape: <   <--> &lt;
            &   <--> &amp;
            ]]> <--> ]]&gt;

 - strcpy() copies one byte more than the length of the text itself
   because the trailing \0 is written to. Currently, this behavior is
   not taken into account when calculating the correct buffer size in
   the xml-encode-*-.c modules. This has to be fixed!

  - libm may be used. We don't depend on sprintf() but convert out
    numbers ourselves for portability.

  - IEEE values ranges for floating point numbers will be used for
    accurarcy in XML presentation.

 - autoconf should find the types for int32 etc. even if they're not
   defined in sys/types.h.

 - autoconf should specify the compiler flags depending on what the
   compiler supports.
