+## online page editing
+
+* Eventually, might want page deletion.
+* Eventually, might want file upload.
+
+## recentchanges
+
+* Should support RSS for notification of new and changed pages. 
+
+  This can be a static rss file that is generated when the moo
+is built. (As long as all changes to all pages is ok.)
+
+* Should support mail notification of new and changed pages.
+
+  Hmm, should be easy to implement this.. it runs as a svn post-coommit hook
+  already, so just look at the userdb, svnlook at what's changed, and send
+  mails to people who have subscribed.
+
+  A few details:
+  1. [[Joey]] mentioned that being able to subscribe to globs as well as
+     explicitly named pages would be desirable.
+  2. I think that since we're using Perl on the backend, being able to
+     let users craft their own arbitrary regexes would be good.
+
+     Joey points out that this is actually a security hole, because Perl
+     regexes let you embed (arbitrary?) Perl expressions inside them.  Yuck!
+
+     It would also be good to be able to subscribe to all pages except discussion pages or the SandBox: `* !*/discussion !sandobx`, maybe --[[Joey]]
+
+  3. Of course if you do that, you want to have form processing on the user
+     page that lets them tune it, and probably choose literal or glob by
+     default.
+
+  The first cut, I suppose, could use one sendmail process to batch-mail all
+  subscribers for a given page.  However, in the long run, I can see users
+  demanding a bit of feature creep:
+
+  4. Each user should be able to tune whether they see the actual diff parts or
+     not.
+  5. Each user should be able to set a maximum desired email size.
+  6. We might want to support a user-specified shibboleth string that will be
+     included in the email they receive so they can easily procmail the messages
+     into a folder.

+
+## pluggable renderers
+
+I'm considering a configurable rendering pipeline for each supported
+filename extension. So for ".mdwn" files, it would send the content through
+linkify, markdown, and finalize, while for ".wiki" files it might send it
+through just a wiki formatter and finalize.
+
+This would allow not only supporting more types of markup, but changing
+what style of [[WikiLink]]s are supported, maybe some people want to add
+[[CamelCase]] for example, or don't like the [[SubPage/LinkingRules]].
+
+The finalize step is where the page gets all the pretty junk around the
+edges, so that clearly needs to be pluggable too.
+
+There also needs to be a step before finalize, where stuff like lists of pages
+that linked back to it could be added to the page. However, doing linkbacks
+also needs to tie into the main logic, to determine what pages need to be
+renered, so maybe that won't be a plugin.
+
+## revisit case
+
+Being case insensative is handy, but it does make the [[BackLinks]] a bit
+ugly compared to other links. It should be possible to support pagenames
+that have uppercase, while still allowing them to be linked to using any
+case.
+
+## html
+
+Make the html valid. Add css.
+
+## sigs
+
+Need a way to sign name in page that's easier to type than "--\[[Joey]]"
+and that includes the date.
+
+What syntax do other wikis use for this? I'm considering "\[[--]]" (with
+spaces removed) as it has a nice nmemonic.
+
+OTOH, adding additional syntax for this would be counter to one of the
+design goals for ikiwiki: keeping as much markup as possible out of the
+wiki and not adding nonstandard markup. And it's not significantly hard to
+type "--\[[Joey]]", and as to the date, we do have page history.
+
+## recentchanges links to commit diffs
+
+Would take a bit more viewcvs integration, let the be a "[diff]" link in
+recentchanges that goes to the diff for any listed change.
+
+## recentchanges more than 100
+
+Possibly add "next 100" link to it, but OTOH, you can just use svn log if
+you need that data..
+
+## search
+
+* full text (use third-party tools?)
+* list of all missing pages
+* list of all pages or some kind of page map
+
+## page indexes
+
+Might be nice to support automatically generating an index based on headers in a page, for long pages. The question is, how to turn on such an index?
+
+## page locking
+
+Some wikis will need the abiity to lock a page, or the whole wiki, so that only admins can edit them. Probably using the same globbing as for recentchanges mails to determine what to lock. 
+
+Probably it's ok if locking is only supported for web commits.
+
+## User settings page
+
+A cgi page to allow a user to log out and to edit their prefs, including password, email, and anything we add later (subscriptions, etc).
+
+## Logo
+
+ikiwiki needs a logo. I'm thinking something simple like the word "ikiwiki" with the first "k" backwards; drawn to show that it's "wiki" reflected.
+
+## Page last-changed timestamps
+
+Of course you can go to the history to see when a page last changed in svn, still, it will be nice to have a timestamp at the bottom of pages. Should be based on the modification date of the source file, not the last rebuild date.
