Things I'd like to see:

1: A clean install process for upgraders. Quite a mess for those who
are migrating from 6.3.x and lower to 6.5.

2: Stability, stability, stability.

3: Optimize the SQL currently in use.  It seems there's lots of
inefficient queries ... the web and SB interfaces and could be so much
more responsive with some good SQL optimization.

4: Reduced resources footprint.  It's beginning to look pretty fat for
something called "Slim"Server.

5: Enhance the scanning process.  There are lots of apps out there that
monitor drive folders for changes without the intensive scanning process
used by Slim (except for initial scan of course...).  It'd be much nicer
if SS would add music and playlists to my library on the fly as their
added to the directory.

6: Improve the scan process.  Does it really need to take as long as it
does??  MusicMagic scans my whole library in 1/4 the time SlimServer
does ...  seems there's room for improvement there.  Probably relates
to item #3 on some level.

7: Begin more thoroughly embracing AJAX on the web interface ... it's
really getting dated with the old
click/reload-the-whole-page-for-changes paradigm.  ...especially with
how long page loads can take sometimes.

Overall, I'd say that the server software has all the features 90% of
users could want.  It'd be good to focus on making those features as
good as they can be before hanging on a bunch more fluff.
