 URGENT:
-
+o scan ALL modules, so that they use consistent names for structures
+  and variables in their instantiation (rlm_foo_t *inst), and that they
+  call rlm_foo_detach() if anything goes wrong, instead of just free()'ing
+  'inst'.  The cf_parse_section().. code may have malloc'd memory, and
+  that needs to be free'd, too.
+o Add a 'listen' directive, ala Apache, so that we can listen
+  on multiple ports. Hmm... if we do that, we should allow multiple
+  virtual servers, too.
 o Stop unloading modules on HUP so that we can have persistant
   handles/socketc/etc from module_init().  Alan D. and Alan C. had a good
   plan for when to load/reload modules on the list recently...I say
   run with that.
-o modular radutmp and radwtmp, as per Alan Curry's old patches.
-o merge OSF/OSFIA patches from Cistron.
 o double-check Cistron 'compat' mode, so that all current users of
   Cistron can upgrade "out of the box" to FreeRADIUS

 MEDIUM PRIORITY
 o go through all of the code and reformat it, for project standards
 o go through all of the code, removing unnecessary #include's, and
   generating a standard include file order which will work across all
   platforms.
-o go through *.c and *.h, adding comments at the top with a copyright,
-  and a GPL license.
-o fix the proxy receive code, so that we don't have to look through ALL
-  of the requests to find the matching proxy.  This might be hard to do..
-  It would also involve thread locking issues.
 o rad_malloc() fixes:  child processes/threads ALWAYS kill themselves
   if malloc() fails.  The main server process does a 'sleep' for N
   seconds, and tries again.  After T tries, it gives up, and calls exit().
