autofs v3 TODO list
-------------------
* I am accepting minor changes to autofs v3 such as additional
modules. No major changes.
autofs v4 TODO list
-------------------
* autofs 4 is developed by Jeremy Fitzhardinge. It supports
multimounts without being quite as radical a departure
architecturally.
autofs v5 TODO list
-------------------
* Completely rewritten kernel protocol, using the new VFS features
under development by Alexander Viro for the 2.6 kernel series.
* Use multithreading rather than processes in the daemon.
* Support multimount entries. (Quite messy: can't unmount the
tree as a unit, probably needs locking while constructing the tree,
and needs scaffolding if no entry for /. Appears *very* difficult
to do without threading!)
* /net support: need hostname resolver module (easy) as well as mountd
query (easy) plus all the multimount entry stuff...
* Direct mount support.
* Ghosting to support browsable directories.
