This should probably be migrated into an issue tracker. Right now we're nominally [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=75274 using SourceForge], but I, at least, find it tedious to work with.
+
-
 
+
-
That said, these are my ''personal'' things-which-ought-to-be-done, and not the reflection of any consensus; I'm just dumping them here because it's better than them living in a random file on my hard disk.

=== E-on-Java work to do===
+
-
 
+
-
* Security
+
-
** Change the default taming policy for no-safej-file classes from ALL to NONE. (2010-02-27)
+
-
** Add shortcut syntax to [[SafeJ]] files for declaring allow-all, then replace the functionality of ApprovedClassList with safej files using that syntax. (2010-02-27)
+
-
 
+
-
* Cleanup
+
-
** Documentation, including impl-specific, should go to the wiki. Spec tests go to the wiki ([[:Category:E specification]]). Impl-specific (features and regression) tests stay in source tree. (2010-02-27)
+
-
 
+
-
* Features
+
-
** add fromKeysOf and fromValuesOf as [[ConstList]] and [[ConstMap]] maker methods. also rename fromIteratable to fromAssociationsOf (2008-03-24)
+
-
** Make setup.e-awt work on other platforms. (2008-03-24)
+
-
** Make setup use powerbox-style operation rather than being unconditionally privileged. (2008-03-24)
+
-
** Make [[TextWriter]]s [[pass by construction]], as provided in [[E-on-CL]]. (2008-03-24)
+
-
** Make objects print with FQN-prefix components if their local name is _, like they used to. (2008-03-24)
+
-
** Make safejTemplate.e into a caplet, if we can make it possible to give a caplet permission to run javap ... oh, my taming-command-line-tools framework (2008-03-24)
+
-
** Java subtyping relations should be exposed as Class's implementation of rangeSupersetOf
+
-
* ???
+
-
** https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1666433&group_id=75274&atid=551529 (2008-03-24)
+
-
** https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=75274&atid=551529 (2008-03-24)
+
-
 
+
-
* Bug fixes:
+
-
** powerboxControllerMakerAuthor.emaker -- JFileChooser usage treats cancel the same as OK (2008-03-24)
+
-
* Test fixes:
+
-
** makeIOUIssuer.updoc and sugar-demo.e-swt contain hardcoded references to ~/e/src/ which is wrong (2008-03-24)
+
-
** esrc/com/opencola/drm/example/MintMaker.updoc contains an expectation of E version (2008-03-24)
+
-
** esrc/org/erights/e/elang/interp/makeBootServer.updoc contains an expectation of install path (2008-03-24)
+
-
** esrc/org/erights/e/elib/sealing/makeVOCPair.emaker contains an expectation of ~ path (2008-03-24)
+
-
** esrc/org/erights/e/elib/slot/lamport.updoc has <_> where is now <everFormula> (2008-03-24)
+
-
** esrc/org/erights/e/examples/arith/makeRational.updoc ditto <makeRational> (2008-03-24)
+
-
** esrc/org/erights/e/extern/persist/persist.updoc runs out of heap space - ??? (2008-03-24)
+
-
** esrc/org/erights/e/facet/makeCaretaker.updoc expectation of cwd path (2008-03-24)
+
-
 
+
-
=== E-on-CL work to do/misc notes ===
+
-
 
+
-
* Old notes from Jul 17 2008:
+
-
** eocl r992:993 introduced a slowdown [in executing --updoc tests/captp/introducer.updoc].
+
-
** Stuff about custom method specializers in SBCL: [http://doc.gold.ac.uk/~mas01cr/tmp/skill.lisp] [http://doc.gold.ac.uk/~mas01cr/tmp/paper.pdf] [http://www.doc.gold.ac.uk/~mas01cr/tmp/mop-27.impure.lisp]
+
-
** [[transparent]] does NOT imply ok-for-[[Selfless]]. transparent can be mutable, e.g. [[FlexList]] (w/o value guard?) is transparent. TODO: revise Selfless to drop the independent Selfless auditor, in favor of TransparentSelfless approval, etc. -- because (Selfless+Transparent) isn't sufficient, we need to require immutability as well
+
-
** invocation for benchmarking + sprof-tree: <pre>time rlwrap ./clrune -L--eval -L'(require :sb-sprof)' -L--load -L ~/Documents/sbslow-project/sbcl/sprof-tree.lisp -L--eval -L'(setf sb-sprof:*sample-interval* 0.1)' -L--eval -L'(defun sb-sprof::report () (with-open-file (s "sampler-updoc.trace" :direction :output :element-type :default :if-exists :supersede) (sb-sprof::write-sampler-data s)))' -p ../sb-parse-cache.sexp --updoc --profile sb-sprof tests/captp/AnswersTable.updoc</pre>
+

*** this may be obsolete due to having profile options in clrune —[[User:Kevin Reid|Kevin Reid]] 08:56, 6 May 2010 (CDT)
+
-
 
+
-
=== For all implementations ===
+
-
 
+
-
* Take the draft utility library called 'Flow' and publish it, possibly as part of the E standard library
+
-
* meta.getState() is to be deprecated and replaced; it has the following flaws:
+
-
** Its result should be an [[Env]], not a [[ConstMap]], so as to avoid using any ampersands
+
-
** It uses the innermost enclosing object expression, so its presence means that introducing a function has possibly surprising effects; instead, it should take a parameter being the name of the object (i.e. <code>def foo() { meta.getEnv(foo) }</code>)
+
-
 
+
-
=== E design work ===
+
-
 
+
-
* Idea: Every directory serves as a root (that is, has the facilities of [[file__uriGetter|<file>]] like optUnget). This allows chrooting and allows updoc tests to be given virtual roots that aren't different in implementation from the real root.(2010-02-27)
+
-
** File pathname getting is tamed away, use &lt;myRoot>.optUnget instead. The REPL's printFunc's textWriter has authority to show paths.
+
-
* Post as unresolved design issue whether to use E-on-CL's isQuoting and printSame methods in standard E. (2010-02-27)
+
-
* [[ConstList]] should have an operation analogous to [[FlexList#replace/5]].
+
-
 
+
-
=== Meta ===
+
-
* Post the contents of my 'To be discussed with MarkM' file on the wiki. (2010-02-27)
+
