-4. Make dump able to backup several directories and/or files in one
- invocation, like the SunOS version.
+Urgent items (for the next stable version):
+-------------------------------------------
+
+All others:
+-----------
+
+1. More documentation? Examples, crontab?
+
+2. Explore and correct dump problems on active filesystems
+ (lseek/read negative count) (This should be OK as of 0.4b14.
+ Unfortunately, this seems to continue for a very few users).
+
+3. Reimplement the ext2 specific code in a "backend" and
+ make the dump code more generic. This would allow creation
+ of other backends for other filesystems. Implementing a
+ (v)fat backend should be quite easy, as for BSD ffs (we
+ already have the code for this). The BSD code in traverse.c
+ (all those #ifdef _BSD) should go into the ffs backend.
+
+4. Implement a DEBUG option which doesn't fork on each tape, making
+ it able to debug dump with gdb.
+
+5. Make a bootable dump tape? I don't know if it is possible...
+
+6. EA/ACL support in dump (requested by Michael Ju. Tokarev
+ <mjt@tls.msk.ru>.
+
+7. Better readline completition in restore (escape spaces etc).
