 Open Issues/To-Do Items  Open Issues/To-Do Items
   
  Release Checklist for 0.5 Alpha 1   Short Term Project Support
   
     - Add 'fcgiapp' module sources to distribution; update README/INSTALL to credit      * Add "performance monitoring" subsystem to 'peak.running'
       DC and OpenMarket and reference their licenses.  
   
       * Add support for finding/registering plugins to 'peak.config'
   
 Targeted for 0.5 Alpha 2        - Refactor IConfigKey to support explicit "namespace" concept
   
     * ZConfig Integration        - Refactor IPropertyMap -> IConfigMap, add iterability/search
   
       - A 'config.ZConfig' module that provides "PEAK-aware" versions of ZConfig          - Add inverted indexes for namespace lookups/search
         services (e.g. it will use 'peak.naming' to resolve URLs)  
   
       - App startup tools based on ZConfig files.          - Add 'IIterableConfigSource' (?) subclass, use for search funcs.
   
       - Sample 'AdaptiveTask' classes that perform the same functions as those in          - Lock namespaces that have been iterated over
         the MetaDaemon package, with a ZConfig schema to run them in a daemon-like  
         application.  
   
       - Generate ZConfig schemas from 'peak.model' or MOF models?        - Change existing configuration keys not to use tuples as surrogate keys
   
         - Add 'config.PluginsFor' key that finds plugins
   
     * Fix issue w/reading XMI 1.1 files where metamodel has nested packages          - May need 'suggestParentComponent()' to support dictionaries so plugin
             dictionaries will work correctly
   
     * Generate UML 1.4 and 1.5 and CWM 1.0 and 1.1, and add them to the          - Should it implement the "smart property" interface?
       'setup.py' package lists.  
   
     * Get XMI writing in place, w/transaction support        - Things to look at during refactorings:
   
     * 'peak.running' refactorings: use standard 'logging' module's log levels,          - Better consolidation of config/component key and recipe interfaces?
        add 'logging' distro to 'peak.util' for 2.2 backward compatibility,  
        and possibly adjust cluster stuff to work off ZConfig primary and  
        generate clustertools file(s).  
   
           - Rule chaining
   
           - Use objects for section parsing instead of functions?
   
       * peak.storage
   
         - 'storage.dbType()'
   
   
  Targeted for 0.5 Beta 1  
   
     * 'peak.naming' refactorings: 'peak.model'-based syntax utilities for   Targeted for 0.5 Alpha 3
        creating address syntaxes.  
   
     * Updated reference docstrings for 'peak.api', 'peak.binding',      * peak.binding
       'peak.config', 'peak.exceptions', and 'peak.naming'.  
   
     * Finish tutorial chapter 2 (?)        - Cleanup/document attribute binding interface
   
     * On-the-fly class combination (think "runtime module inheritance",      * peak.running.logs
       without the modules) for DMs.  
   
         - Add 'DefaultLoggingService', service-based system
   
         - Separate formatters from publishers
   
         - Loggers should know their names and pass that info to event constructor
   
       * peak.config
   
         - 'ZConfigSchemaService' and 'zconfig:schema@streamURL' scheme
   
       * peak.web (some of this may get bumped to alpha 4)
   
          - clean up DOMlet parse/build framework (e.g. add line number info)
   
          - default error templates, w/useful info
   
          - Refactor skin/layer/resource machinery so that layers can be shared
            between skins (because i18n will probably want skins and that's going
            to greatly multiply memory requirements)
   
          - A set of simple, basic form controls that handle value rendering only
            (form metadata, validation, etc. will be handled by peak.web.forms in
            a later release)
   
          - try/catch DOMlet (and related error rendering interface/framework)

    Targeted for 0.5 Alpha 4
   
       * Transaction/storage refactorings
   
         - transaction scopes for commands and tasks
   
         - integrate locks with transactions
   
         - transactable persistent queues
   
         - DM.find()/DM.get() queries
   
       * peak.running.commands
   
          - Add option parsing framework based on optparse (backported to 2.2)
   
       * peak.config
   
          - Iterable keys to PropertyMap (rename to configMap?)
   
  Targeted for 0.5 Final Release (or sooner)         - Writable and subscribable config sources, including editable .ini's
   
     General      * peak.web
   
         * Tutorial complete through chapter 4         - allow use of // in DOMlets' data paths, to access resource space
   
     peak.storage         - DOMlets for layout/region, as defined in "A layout framework":http://www.eby-sarna.com/pipermail/transwarp/2003-August/000684.html
   
         - unit tests for more complex object scenarios: references, thunks..?         - conditional GET support (last modified/ETag) for static resources
   
         - lock management interfaces/API         - image resources
   
         - docstrings for reference         - the return of the Specialist
   
     peak.model      * Have a way to easily in-line custom component usage (e.g. automatically
         create a subclass component with specified 'Obtain' or 'Make' bindings to
         get its configuration).
   
       * Drop 'persistence' package, since ZODB 4 has been derailed.  Change to
         "state-delegation" model, which will integrate better with 'peak.query'.
   
    Targeted for 0.5 Beta 1
   
       * Up-to-date reference docstrings for all packages
   
       * Finish tutorial chapter 2 (?)
   
       * Web publishing framework sufficient to deploy page-based or object-
         published apps
   
         - clean up TW docstrings & interfaces  
   
    Targeted for 0.5 Final Release (or sooner)
   
       peak.storage
   
           - unit tests for more complex object scenarios: references, thunks..?
   
     peak.naming      peak.naming
   
         - useful example "flat" naming context (e.g. like AppUtils.URLkeys)          - useful example "flat" naming context (e.g. like AppUtils.URLkeys)
   
         - useful example hierarchical naming context (e.g. like JNDI's LDAP          - useful example hierarchical naming context (e.g. like JNDI's LDAP
           context or filesystem context)            context or a filesystem context)
   
         - rework smtp: to return a factory object that supports open().          - rework smtp: to return a factory object that supports open().
           Also think about whether smtp should move elsewhere. Maybe            Also think about whether smtp should move to peak.net?
           there should be peak.network or peak.internet for things like  
           smtp, ftp, etc contexts?  
   
     peak.running  
   
         - make 'cluster' parser complain about things that would cause  
           the clusterit tools to choke or barf on the file, or which would  
           produce ambiguous or unintended results.  
   
         - simple daemons comparable to those in MetaDaemon, unit tests  
   
         - docstrings for reference  
   
   
     peak.config  
   
         - "Rule"-oriented configuration files (section specifies component  
           rather than property name prefix), so that daemons and other simple  
           apps can be fully configured and run via a config file.  
   
     peak.util  
   
         - docstrings for reference  
   
         - more unit tests?  
   
   
   
   
   
    Targeted for version 0.6
   
      * Get XMI writing in place, w/transaction support
   
      * Generate UML 1.5 and CWM 1.0 and 1.1, and add them to the
        'setup.py' package lists.
   
      * On-the-fly class combination (think "runtime module inheritance",
        but possibly without the modules) for DMs.
   
      * Lock management interfaces/API for peak.storage
   
      * Make 'cluster' parser complain about things that would cause
        the clusterit tools to choke or barf on the file, or which would
        produce ambiguous or unintended results.  (Or replace with ZConfig
        schema that can generate clusterit files.  And/or replace clusterit
        tools with PEAK ones.)
