+Maybe in the near future...
+
+ * Logging.
+
+ * Check POSIX compliance.
+
+
+
+There are no plans to actually do the following any time soon...
+
+ * Develop at, batch modes of operation.
+
+ * Make compatibilities with other crons (BSD, SYSV, Solaris, Dillon's, ...)
+
+ * Port to BSD, other operating systems.
+
+ * Full security audit for Vixie mode.
+
+ * Move internal functions into a namespace such that configuration files
+ cannot interfere with mcron itself.
+
+
+
+Quite likely to happen if version 2.0 ever materializes...
+
+ * Split program into Vixie and mcron separates (should streamline mcron
+ code by a factor of three; removes need for security audit).
+
+ * UNIX or TCP socket will allow interrogation and control of a running
+ daemon (should be more reliable, efficient and useful than using the
+ SIGHUP-/var/cron/update method).
+
+
+
+May happen if version 2.0 ever materializes...
+
+ * Add anacron functionality (run missed jobs if the daemon is stopped, for
+ example if a personal computer does not run 24 hours a day).
+
+ * TCP socket to allow control via HTTP (web browser interface). Or maybe
+ just CGI personality.
+
+ * GTK+/Bononbo interface.
