Warning to those who aren't me: this is an unorganized list of things
that might be classified as bugs, improvements, random thoughts or
suggestions. Hopefully it will get cleaned up over time.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- reread of conserver.cf - totally difficult
- non-dynamic memory allocation
- no IPC for coordinated updates
- additions only may work
- deletions only may work
- reimplement the whole thing *would* work
- better shadow file support
- PAM support
- syslog?
- alternate (md5) password encryption support in conserver.passwd
- config file examples for various configurations
- per-line timestamps
- only when not connected?
- flow control configuration (hardcoded on, i think)
- pipe input/output (console <-> program) via 'console'
- group permissions (better user management in general)
- 64-bit compilation support (have a patch set contributed, somewhere, i think)
- autologout? setting per console? gack, would have to interpret data.
- "listen" capability (watch all/multiple consoles)
- alternate break (^ecl2?)
- aliases for console entries
- authentication to terminal servers (ssh, passphrase, whatever)
- "not" or "except" in passwd file (!console).
- master redirect for same host - big mess
- redirect for console goes to `hostname`
- should probably go to ip of connection
- addresses not allowed - has to be hostname (resolvable by client)
- can you say: gack!
- multi-homed/multi-ip hosts not supported well
- other names/ip addrs not detected as local, necessarily
- cyclades ts1000/2000 port : "Moses, Joel" <jmoses@deloitte.com>
- dynamic memory allocation
- buf[BUFSIZ] in conserver/group.c CheckPasswd().
- kill --with-maxgrp
- config file for client (list of masters, for example)
- patches from Enrik Berkhan <Enrik.Berkhan@planb.de>
- bind address
- base port for children
- strftime() idea for logfile names : Lars Kellogg-Stedman <lars@larsshack.org>
- 9600baud log replay?
- SSH/SSL/Encryption of some type between client/server
- server -M flag should accept multiple addresses (comma separated)
- should client as well?
- logfile rotation based on size
- website docs on serial port configs
- PCs (solaris x86, linux, *bsd, etc)
- lilo
- bios support
