Wishlist
Here we have a loose list of things the developers and people wish to have: (only unfulfilled wishes showing)
some of them are pretty easy to do... would YOU...pleeeesssse ;)
full-screen-support for the SSH-client
access the contexts via NFS for other programs(mostly shell-scripts) ;) - there is a Java NFS-server
web-browser to support cookies, js, applets, a working history, bookmarks (netscape-import,...)
a transmit to PDA action (for pocket-viewer, Ipaq and Palm)
contexts can get ServiceIDs/RMI-URLs/SOAP-URLs/... of other services with (attribute-to-lookup-the-value-of,postfix-of-new-attribute-name,[T/F]delete-original-attr-if-successfull)
a general meta-context combining the results of a lookup in all configured contexts to use (integrate a new translator into all contexts by adding it to a single meta-context)
try writing a service providing a weiredX (www.jcraft.com/weiredx/index.html) - X-server
let the starter-panel use jRexec to allow executing the services on a remote-server
a component derived from JTextField having a context-menu allowing copy,paste,paste-editor-buffer,...
an action for "text/any" for "lookup definition", ... in the directory-browser
have the contexts integrate into other contexts (translate, ... attribute-values)
easier keyboard-only navigation, maybe a task-switching key
auto.completation in the application-starter-panel (at least for macros)
icons in the application-starter-panel and maybe in the task-list
a temporary full-screen-mode or even virtual-screen-mode to have more space for an application
experiment with activation to save memory in services as well as representations (unused representations are "swapped" to disk)
make bookindex double as a real good spell-checker
let bookindex give more meta-information about the book
make bookindex automatically parse Project-Gutenberg -indice to get the meta-information and index many books at once
a dockin to pop-up a text-screen with the key-layout of the twiddler to learn to use it
make the mail-client use the mime-actions and show atachments via activation
remote-desktop-sharing of single applications
an admin-panel for remote-displays
a small application acting as a client for desktop-sharing that does not require jAugment-base nor JINI
the 3D-UI should support icons aligning to the screen-borders for windows
the 3D-UI should support making windows flat projection-pane-parallel geometries
the battery-service should show when no battery is there
the telephone-service should be able to use gatekeepers
text-representation for the telephone-service
support for exclusive ressources in the JavaSpeechService
a proxy for objects found in the directory-service (there is a JNDI-Corba -provider)
a JTAPI-provider for openh323 and a JTAPI-telephone
a JINI2Corba/Smil/...-gateway (CORBA-gw still missing, SOAP-gw is in alpha)
a calendar-tool
contact-management (maybe as a UI for the directory-service)
a vcard-reader for the directory-service (should be simple)
reading pgp-keys from a key-server (LDAP through the directory-service, no big deal)
a working text-ui-representation for the SSH-client
a ssh-service (same interface) using open-ssh
text-editor-representation, that is jEdit(edit-bus)-compactible or maybe a jEdit-pluginn to read/write jAugment-buffers
a hash-table-reader for the config-file-parser (really simple)
a route-finder/map-service (should prove usable)
a position-service(gps-coord) (getting the position from e.g. GPS-card and binding it in the directory-service)
a location-server (city,street,house,room) (2 implementations possible: using a position-service and the MAC-address of the current 802.11DS/b-access-point)
an IRC-client (good idea)
a simple FTP-program (maybe, it's simple but is it sensible?)
a napster/...-client (could be integrated into directory-service and media-player)
-"- -contexts connecting the the clients allowing searches via the directory-service
integrate the directory-service into the media-player (for e.g. playlists) (simple)
allow for playlists to be exchanged between text-editor and media-player (simple)
put the JNDI-file-system-provider into the base-package
a simple lyx-style editor to take notes with formulars (could be difficult, but lyx itself has multiple UIs, they could provide a good starting-point)
generalize the mail-client to integrate SMS, voice-messages
give the mail-client a better behavior regarding the directory-service, maybe an auto-completation
a world-watch (simple)
a SQL-client allowing for simple db-administration on the road (simple, but collecting and testing the jdbc-drivers could be work)
a translation-service
a character-recognizer-service
image/video recording and transmission (JMF can do the trick but interoperation could be difficult)
a jabber-client
a toshset/toshutils-dockin/application
write a 3DUI-input-device using video-orbits and a camera (for mapping real-world <-> virtual world and overlays to real world)
