TODO stuff ---------- - Split of standard tasks to cron-standard, preliminary packages currently available at http://people.debian.org/~jfs/cron-standard but we need to handle the conffiles so that they don't get messed up See bug #257393 and Message-ID: <20050309142043.GB16617@dat.etsit.upm.es> - Better behave with cron replacements, investigate how cron packages (like fcron or bcron) can be installed/deinstalled without breaking the system. This might imply fixing #304036 (which might help fix #312614 too BTW) - Debate changing the policy of /etc/cron.d being a drop-in for packages only vs. a general drop-in for crontabs Milestones ---------- - Convert source package to source format 3.0 (quilt) The current cron source package is the result of a 1993 upstream and 17 years of commits. This organic growth must be normalized before an upgrade to upstream cron-4.1 can be considered. - Compare our resulting cron-3.0 patches to FreeBSD's where possible This is intended as a safety measure; the goal is to identify any grave errors or other larger issues in our patches so we don't carry them on into cron-4.1. - Review and update the ancient Debian packaging Certain elements are heavily outdated and must be either brought up-to-date, or dropped. - Update to upstream cron-4.1 - Compare our resulting cron-4.1 to RHEL/SLES, with a focus on possible security issues (SUID/SGID, SELinux, ...) - Compare our resulting cron-4.1 to Fedora's cronie (a fork of ISC cron) - Consider switching upstream to cronie, or at least grabbing some of it's features such as INOTIFY support.
