New TODO process

Hi Everyone,

oFono project has been getting frequent requests for project status and roadmap details recently. In an effort to add some visibility to these aspects we decided to implement a new process.

The idea is quite simple: identify the gaps in oFono features and try to estimate the relative complexity and priority of implementing these features. The list can be used to quickly understand the relative status of oFono (what works, what doesn't work.) In addition, people interested in contributing to the oFono project can use this list for an idea which tasks/features they can contribute.

We have started this in the TODO file in ofono git repository. It is by no means complete; we expect that this list will be refined and expanded over time.

If you identify any oFono feature gaps, please submit a patch to this mailing list describing the feature. If you have completed a particular feature, please submit a patch to remove the task from the TODO list and update doc/overview.txt to mention that this feature is now available.

Let us know what you think!

Regards,
-Denis

I'm sure all managers are excited about this :)

I also think it's a good idea. Just keeping the document up-to-date is the challenging part.

What about hardware/modem support, any plans to document that part? That's my main concern right now.

Is there a list containing various types of modems and models available somewhere? Naturally it is bound to be incomplete, but at least that would be a good start.

just send patches against this file. Potentially I can contain whatever we want.

This is a good solution imo and may also attract new contributors!
