Here are some tasks which spring to mind for me. Most are very general
though and aren’t down to a level you exemplified.

- Network
-- Allow setting of address information via ncpa. (This is the only
remaining task for the current 0.3.0 roadmap)
-- Salvage the sockets library from Alex’s branch and merge to the
development branch.
-- Build on the existing NDIS model introducing support for IM drivers
-- Add a default firewall including GUI for user interaction of the
fundamental aspects.
-- Add support for packet routing with Network Address Translation.
-- Assist and merge with a Win32 port of SMB.

- Security
-- Start to build on the current framework providing basic OS security
-- Implement logon / logoff facility linking in with our gina library.

- Filesystem
-- Replace the primary filesystem in place of a journaling system.

- NT Services
-- Add support for starting and stopping services

- Multimedia
-- Continue development on DX initially aiming for hardware accelerated
playability of key games.
-- Improve support for existing sound model.

- Explorer
-- Add support for layered windows.
-- Add libraries for support of common image formats, including jpeg,
gif and png.
-- Improve the graphical design of the UI. Enlist help of graphical
designers / programmers.

-- Finish off USB support for keyboard and mouse.

throttling, hibernation.

within a university.
