-/tmp/libguestfs temporary directory is not cleaned up.
+Ideas for the Python bindings:
+https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-virt/2009-April/msg00114.html
 
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 We badly need to actually implement the FTP server mentioned in the
 documentation.
 
+Or: Implement a FUSE-based filesystem.  See the FUSE mountlo
+project which does something similar, albeit only to single
+filesystems:
+
+http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=121684&package_id=150116

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
-(From Ján ONDREJ (SAL))
+BufferIn and BufferOut should turn into <char *, int> and simple
+strings in other languages that can handle 8 bit clean strings.
+Limit on transfers would still be 2MB for these types.
+ - then implement write-file properly
+ - and implement read-file
 
-We should provide a way to stream partitions in and out.
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
-Thus:
+Implement febootstrap command.
 
-dd-out /dev/sda1 > [some file]
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
-dd-in /dev/sda1 < [some file]
+Complete the Haskell bindings (see discussion on haskell-cafe).
 
-Along with this, we need to be able to call the resize2fs program to
-resize the filesystem in case it is larger or smaller than the target
-partition.
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
-Another useful feature would be to allow rsync to/from a stream for
-whole filesystems and subdirectories.
+For virt-inspector:
 
-The current protocol is message-oriented and doesn't support
-streaming.  But it's simple enough that we could add this.
+ - Needs a "query mode", like "are (Xen|KVM) PV drivers installed?"
+   "does this guest need a Xen hypervisor?"
 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+ - Are PV network drivers enabled (see /etc/modprobe.conf)
 
-(From Ján ONDREJ (SAL))
+ - Make a libvirt XML config
 
-guestfish edit <filename>
+ - Test over available OSes
