TODO list for the development branch of FreeBSD-CVSweb.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

o Tear the code apart, and modularize.

o Ensure that fatal error messages are shown properly when gzip encoding
  is enabled.

o Use specialized modules from CPAN to do stuff, maybe these would be useful:
  + Archive::Tar
  + Archive::Zip
  + Compress::Zlib
  + Compress::Bzip2
  + HTML::Entities
  + Cvs or VCS::LibCVS

o Integrate/cooperate with various CVS utilities.
  + cvs2cl      <http://www.red-bean.com/cvs2cl/>
  + cvsplot     <http://cvsplot.sourceforge.net/>
  + CVSps       <http://www.cobite.com/cvsps/>
  + CVShistory  <http://jamwt.com/CVSHistory/>

o Limit the number of log entries shown.

o Explore whether we can use cvs for all operations and drop rlog, rcsdiff
  and friends.

o Find out if it is feasible to provide prune-like functionality, ie. hide
  empty subdirs.

o Recursive diffs, including support for tags/branches/dates.

o Support for dates in tarballs/zips (in addition to tags/branches).
