- Section 7 (daemon) and 9 (priv/auth)
- section 9
* section 9 mostly done by Renee so need to check with her but looks all
copasetic to us.
* Alan/Michael need to check netcfgd/nwamd to make sure they run as right user
* issues on upgrade boundary dealt with by if (getuid() != NWAM_UID) exit()
in daemons
- section 7
* some discussion about need to have interface over wireless link independent
(and before instantiation of) of interface NCU.
* objects.c - need to look at this later to see if we can factor with ncu/ncp
handling code
* need IFInit state
* Lower Right states - useful due to observability, but that is some what
destroyed by multiple addresses in NCU in various states
* IFUp edge to {IFDown, LinkDown}
* need regression tests for 0.5 bugs
* need to check "Followup on libnwam" thread for GUI API requirements
* need to annotate docs and implement code to call out to contingency
code when possible state changes happen. Then we can backoff on timer
based contingency checking.
* flapping - need to implement algorithm to manage
misc
----
* discussion about tunables and limiting them
* some GUI features might need tunables, but maybe just defaults such as
if the "add wlan to known list" checkbox defaults on
* alan pushing known wlan code later today
* There shall be one user NCP enforcement in UIs
