-[[!tag open_issue_hurd]]
-
-This todo is primarily targetted at the Hurd proper
-and applications that rely on the Hurd interfaces.
-
-* psmisc
-
-The tools provided by the psmisc package are linux centric. Killall and pstree, for instance, require Linux's proc file system but could just as easily use Hurd's libps.
-
-* tmpfs
-* ppp
-* unionfs/stowfs
-* supermount translator
-
-From Marcus, 2002:
-
-* xkb driver for console (for international users)
-* kbd leds in console (well, in general, Roland's new driver in oskit for that crap)
-* fixing tmpfs (it's buggy, Neal says it's Mach's fault)
-* adding posix shared memory (requires the io\_close call to be implemented)
-* adding posix file locking (requires the io\_close call to be implemented)
-* testing
- * find + various filesystems (are inode numbers for . and .. sane?)
- * ext2fs with other block sizes than 4096
- * --help and --version and --usage in all programs
- * I have seen ^V in some --help output, might be argp bug
- * Verify that all options are documented clearly, and that no unimplemented options appear
- * Is the short and long description in the help output correct?
- * Is the return value of all programs correct (eg, does main() return a sane value)
- * Is the suid bit correctly set for all installed programs?
- * Translators
- * Does settrans -g work? -fg?
- * Does stat() work on all translated nodes and give proper data?
- * What about chown, chmod (some translators should pass this through to the underlying node, esp in /dev!)
- * Does statfs give correct data?
- * Are all inode numbers and link counts correct?
-* We also should have a "make check" test suite. We can add this once Jeff finished his automake patches
-* pick up the other things
- * new console is basically done
- * needs integration of course
- * X switching support
-* there is certainly more to do ...
