That way +we don't loose time sending stuff to an already closed connection. + +- HTTP/1.1 Pipelining support +This more of an optimization of the http io-slave that is intended to make it +faster while using as few resources as possible. Work on this is currently +being done to add this support for KDE 3.x version. + +- WebDAV support: +The majority of the work for this is done, see README.webdav. GUI integration +into konqueror as a konqueror part would be nice, to add GUI support for +features such as locking. + +- Rating(s) support. http://www.w3.org/PICS: +This might involve an external program to parse the labels, and something to +configure access accordingly. There is only some basic things that need to be +added to kio_http to support this. The majority of the work has to be done at the +application level. A tdehtml plugin in tdeaddons to do this might be a nice idea. + +- P3P support: +This can also be implemented as a plugin to konqueror and does +not need any speical support in HTTP except perhaps sending a +flag that indicates that the web page provides some P3P information. +This is something that can be added as a plugin to tdeaddons. + + +Things that do not require programming +============================ + +- "Friendly" error message html page. +We currently support the sending of error messages, but this is only done if the server +sends back nicely formatted error messages. We do not have fall back HTML pages that +describe these error messages in a non-technical manner! This of course also means that +we will certainly need to have these files translated. + + +Maintainers +Waldo Bastian <bastian@kde.org> +Dawit Alemayehu <adawit@kde.org> +WebDAV support: Hamish Rodda <rodda@kde.org> |
