* Additional unit tests
* Bundle root certificates to be used on platforms without a system store
(we need to choose a reliable source, maybe mozilla or debian?)
* API documentation
clean up Algorithm
clean up Filter
add QCA::systemStore() and haveSystemStore()
* Considerations
threading (safety, usability) in API and plugins
smart cards, external keyring drives
it's possible we use QSecureArray in some unnecessary places
* finish API:
move secure memory C functions to qca_tools.h
make public C functions to init in qca_tools.h, that qca_core will use
cert/crl: Distinguished Names (Botan has X509_DN)
cert: turn Info into an enum
openpgp: be sure to support key expiration and validity
shortcuts for reading/writing certs, etc, directly to files?
cert: extensions
tls: session reuse
cert/csr/crl: path limit, subject/issuer ids (useful for create/validate)
cert/csr: constraints, ex_constraints, policies (same as above)
cert/csr: subjectAltName
crl: issuer info, authority_key_id
quoted-printable TextFilter
* finish code for APIs:
cipher - needs to handling padding
mac
pkey
cert/crl/store/csr/ca/etc (don't forget to call detach())
tls
sasl
openpgp
smime
default provider should have built-in sha1 and md5 (?)
system store: all added certs need to be flagged as trusted
* examples
create example for BigInteger
update cipher example (after API sorted out)
add systemStore() example
* write plugin support
qca-tls: do something about the cert check lag. maybe a thread?
qca-botan: implement
qca-egads (or qca-egd): implement for Random support
qca-openssl: need to implement locking callbacks.
figure out why Valgrind reports so many memory leaks
* consider new APIs:
cert/pkey: fingerprints (is there a standard for this?)
pkey: ability to choose cipher for toDER/PEM passphrase?
personalbundle: cert chain vs cert + trusted certs?
* build system:
on non-win/mac, allow specifying of flatfile store, else install/use built-in
make sure it installs properly
* qt 4 upgrade:
new include styles
use qmake .prf for auto-discovery by applications
use qplugin
* possibilities for the future:
xmldsig
xmlenc (sort of done already in cutestuff/xmlsec, but need to qca-ify)
advanced pgp functionality (full key info and ability to manipulate keyrings)
Key wrapping - RFC3217 and RFC3394
