There have been a lot of good requests for cobbler/koan features (and bugfixes) lately, so I thought I would share the current list as I have it.

If you have any other requests, now would be a good time to share them. This is the (basically) the same TODO file that's in source control.

====

cobbler TODO list
now with 1-5 priority ratings

always:
2  -  better documentation (particularly online articles)

more new thoughts:
1 - re-support repo add taking http:// urls, which will use repotrack/reposync

core:
1 - import over http://, ftp:// in addition to existing file and rsync:// and ssh://
1 -  better support for import from DVD (with cleaner imported names)
5 -  "check" should check if services (esp httpd) are started
3 -  allow rsync without ssh option

user interface:
5 - "cobbler add" should be distinguished from "edit" so as to not overwrite
5 -  GTK (or Web) UI for Cobbler ?
5 -  have -v or --version
3 -  cobbler system names (indeed, everything) should be case insensitive.

virt:
1 -  enable more virtualization types in koan
4  -  (more of a koan item) LVM support

code cleanup:
5 -  remove the cobbler_msg logic since i18n isn't likely

ideas:
5 -  make the multiple-bootloader system more plugin oriented to allow
     for alternative bootloaders (not neccessarily kickstart related)
     to be added.  (Low priority)
4 -  someone suggested looking at OMAPI for DHCP management

small bugs:
3  - cobbler report with a random parameter produces no output
     that should be an error... is that still the case?
3  - no logrotate or cleanup for /var/log/cobbler (kickstart tracking)
4  - cobbler import should attach "tree" to distro, not profile

===

One other item not on this list is to move source control over to git...

If I had a number #1 thing I want to fix soon it's the DVD import use case. Setting up cobbler using a DVD image (instead of an rsync mirror) deserves to be really really easy, so I will probably tackle that for the next release.

I'd like if possible to add my "request" from Wed, 14 Mar 2007 00:00:45
+0100 into the roadmap too :

- the possibility to install on one or more LVM logical volumes instead
of xvda.

Thank you to take this in consideration.

Fred.

That's already there.

Also to add: investigate keeping kernel options shorter in some way, (possibly symlink tree URLs?).
