General Roundup project TODO list. Note that some of these are semi-formed
ideas. Those ideas that don't make the cutoff for the next major release are
punted automatically into the subsequent major release TODO. When stuff is
done, it's moved to the CHANGES file.

                  not all files...), "list issue", ...
pending mailgw    Allow multiple email addresses at one gw with different
                  default classes and property values (possibly through

                  delivery "aliases" file) eg::

                   roundup: "|roundup-mailgw /instances/dev"
                   vmbugs: "|roundup-mailgw /instances/dev component=voicemail"

pending mailgw    Identification of users should have a configurable degree of
                  strictness (ie. turn off username==address matching)

                  entry
pending web       re-enable auth basic http auth

                  item ids to remove / add in <propname> multilink.

active  web       UNIX init.d script for roundup-server
bug     docs      need to mention somewhere how sorting works
