[edit] Notes

  • Add 1w of stabilisation / QA / Bugfixing
  • LHF: Low hanging fruit

[edit] Pri 1

  • Scalability: ejabberd/presence partitioning via Moodle (2w)
  • Browse.xo transparent sign on - working with Simon (2~3d) [done]
  • DS-Backup -- Restore UI (2d) [done]
  • Management scheme (2w)
    • Scripts automation
    • Update callback scheme

[edit] Pri 2

  • XS on XO - LHF, working with Jerry


[edit] Pri 3

  • Basic reporting scheme (~4d)
  • Ability to switch off registration service (~2d) -- local teams are worried about bogus registrations

[edit] Special offer

  • 2~3 weeks of polish on Moodle for the XS to close the gaps so that we can start taking advantage of community work.

[edit] Delayed

During the 0.6 timeframe we've seen some slippage, and some items won't appear on 0.6 -- as follows:

[edit] Now part of antitheft workplan

  • Lease mgmt - activation, renewal, blacklist (3~4w) -- development will start in May
    • XS: network proto layer, USB-based delivery handling, mgmt UI
    • XO: firmware, initrd, userland
    • Needs simple service announcement scheme
  • Easier transparent OS and activity upgrade - LHF related to lease mgmt -
    • service announcement scheme
    • small XO work (~3d work)

[edit] Not picked up by any workplan

  • Tie internet access to registration - (1w) -- some local teams are worried about locals "stealing" very limited internet bandwidth. We could block internet access from un-registered machines or just throttle them very aggressively. Naturally, needs a 'whitelist' mechanism and UI to whitelist teacher's non-XO laptops.

[edit] Not in the plan

  • F10/F11 rebase
  • Frills or cushions
