cobbler TODO list
now with 1-5 priority ratings

always:
2  -  better documentation (particularly online articles)

more new thoughts:
1  -  re-support repo add taking http:// urls, which will use repotrack/reposync

core:
1 -  import over http://, ftp:// in addition to existing file and rsync:// and ssh://
1 -  better support for import from DVD (with cleaner imported names)
5 -  "check" should check if services (esp httpd) are started
3 -  allow rsync without ssh option

user interface:
5 -  "cobbler add" should be distinguished from "edit" so as to not overwrite
5 -  GTK (or Web) UI for Cobbler ?
5 -  have -v or --version
3 -  cobbler system names (indeed, everything) should be case insensitive.

virt:
1 -  enable more virtualization types in koan
4  -  (more of a koan item) LVM support

code cleanup:
5 -  remove the cobbler_msg logic since i18n isn't likely

ideas:
5 -  make the multiple-bootloader system more plugin oriented to allow
     for alternative bootloaders (not neccessarily kickstart related)
     to be added.  (Low priority)
4 -  someone suggested looking at OMAPI for DHCP management
1 -  make syslinux config files be template generated also

small bugs:
3  - cobbler report with a random parameter produces no output
     that should be an error... is that still the case?
3  - no logrotate or cleanup for /var/log/cobbler (kickstart tracking)
4  - cobbler import should attach "tree" to distro, not profile
3  - provide ways to get around max kernel length limits (symlink paths?)
