This is my personal TODO list. No guarantees if it is out of date and things no
longer apply. If you want to help out with any of it, send me an email.
Documentation- look into moving man page format to a more portable source
format to make translation easier to keep up-to-date (something like txt2tags,
docbook, asciidoc) This will need some research.
Only vaguely related to pacman:
-------------------------------
Port the libdownload (libfetch) manpage from BSD style to Linux style, or at
very least change references to BSD.
Pacman 3.1:
===========
Updated cache cleaning functionality in pacman - keep installed version, choose
number to keep, etc. Good python script in the forums that we should try to
emulate, perhaps.
Pacman 3.0:
-----------
ideas mentioned here- http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=29450- add a
.install message about mirrors, maybe comment whole file, encourage rankmirrors

Localize the date display done in --info output. Also, fix other localized
issues- use non-printf when necessary, make sure all two line printed messages
(especially usage instructions) are printed using one print statement.
(especially usage instructions) are printed using one print statement. We
may need to use some wchar_t output on the progress bar as char/byte counts
differ here.
Rewrite makepkg to use terminal-safe coloring/bolding. tput utility should
allow us to do this.

Other smaller things:

unsigned int vs. unsigned- determine a standard and stick with it
Possibly split utilities/extras from pacman package

Resurrect test scripts, and add ones as needed. Testing by scripts > testing by

Add testing scripts to pactest for issues we have been working on (especially
files moving between packages). Also, take a look at cleaning up the output and
structure of the pactest.py program itself.
Build a replacement for this, or at least standardize its use. We shouldn't
