  8               Now:
  9           
 10               -    Get ACE working on Tandem (or remove ACE from Pegasus).
 11               -    Port Pegasus to Tandem (look for Tandem machine at BMC).
 12               -    Instance repository.
 13               -    Finalize provider interface.
 14               -    Associations (basic).
 15               -    Provider registration (by the standard).
 16               -    MOF compiler (finalize).
 17               -    Write short paper on Pegasus data objects.
 18               -    Integrate DOC++ with make system.
 19               -    Implement the process provider.
 20               -    Compaq requested SQL level-1 description.
 21               -    Get rid of ACE (required if no ACE on Tandem).
 22               -    Need query capability for Compaq.
 23               -    Threading (and process forking).
 24               -    Implement protocol module (the default uses ACE).

 25 mike  1.7     -	 Package up pegasus in Install Shield application.

 28 mike  1.1     ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 29           

 30 mike  1.8     (A)	Modify clear() methods on Array and String so that they don't
 31           	release the old resource (more efficient for GetLine()). Add
 32           	a resize() method.
 33           
 34               (A)	Handle escaping of strings inside object names. Example:
 35           
 36               		X.key1="Hello \"You\""
 37           

 38 mike  1.4     (A) Change make system to rename dll's before link so that they
 39           	can be used by the server.
 40           

 41 mike  1.3     (A) Hide setPropagated() and setClassOrigin() methods (only the resolve
 42                   method should touch these).
 43           

 44 mike  1.2     (A) Notice that there is a bug where you select Scope::REFERENCE and
 45           	and the validation routines still say the scope is wrong for
 46           	qualifiers applied actual references (they are checking for
 47           	property instead).
 48           
 49               (A) There is an odering problem when applying the qualifiers with
 50               	association scope to classes. If the association qualifier does not
 51           	come first, then application of prior qualifiers fail.
 52           	Checking this should be moved to class resolution.
 53           

 54 mike  1.1     (A) Implement instances.
 55           
 56               (A) Providers.
 57

 61           
 62               (B) Use the description that comes back with an error code in the XML
 63               	protocol. Perhaps it should become an extra message field of
 64           	XmlException.
 65           
 66               (B) Source documentation.
 67           
 68               (B) Put README in each directory.
 69           
 70               (B) Handle UCS2 characters in XML (parsing and writing).
 71           
 72               (B) Check for overflow on the number of attributes in XML.
 73           
 74               (B) Handle PARAMETER.REFARRAY in XML.
 75 mike  1.1 
 76               (B) Add validNamespace() method and use it.
 77           
 78               ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 79           
 80               (C) Suppress error message printed by ACE caused by constructing an 
 81                   address from a non existent host.
 82           
 83               (C) Ignore extraneous XML elements (loosely valid).

 85               (C) Get rid of fullyQualified flag.
 86           
 87               (C) Handling of hexadecimal integer values.
 88           
 89               (C) VALUE.REFERENCE within INSTANCENAME and KEYBINDING.
 90           
 91               (C) Resolve whether MOF is a requirement.
 92           
 93               (C) Handle case sensitivity of CIM identifiers.
 94           
 95               (C) Figure out how to handle CIM null values.
 96 mike  1.1 
 97               (C) Make iteration scheme more general.
 98           
 99               (C) Develop XML repository importation mechanism.
100           
101               (C) Move internal headers to ./internal directory
102           
103               (C) Split up XxxRep objects from Xxx objects.
104           
105               (C) Handle case insentive requirement on repository file names.
106           
107               (C) Devise a way to detect whether a class has instances.
108           
109               (C) Cleanup of execeptions.
110           
111               (C) Verify that fixed length arrays are properly handled.
112           
113               (C) Check for null string pointers in String class.
114           
115               (C) Verify that instances are property keyed (during validation).
116           
117 mike  1.1     (C) Thread safety.
118           
119               (C) Use UTF8 for strings.
120           
121               (C) Shrink object sizes.
122           
123               (C) Use lighter I/O system (get rid of C++ streams).

128           
129               (C) Improve the representation of fixed arrays (is that pesky fixed-array
130                 	flag really necessary?)
