These are mainly things left on the TODO list that didn't make it into 7.3:
o Provide "mkserv" support. The partial support that exists should not be
used by anyone other than Operations. Deployment has been informed not
to grant "privatized" machine requests.
o Disable sendmail on public machines.
o Complete the port of some of the functions:
console login: complete (also change xdm for maintaining ref counts)
SNMP
syslogd: port Zephyr version
named: port Hesiod version
o Investigate creating a front-end "xps" that uses DPS extension of X server.
o Default fonts. (xdvi button fonts too large, default font too small).
o Compile mwm against shared X libraries
o Improve installation procedure
o Better integration into source tree
o Provide tcsh
o Miscellaneous bugs
default fonts (xdvi button font too large, default text font too small)
xdvi doesn't deal well with -rv on multiplane displays
latex produces characters that are not liked by xdvi
Moira clients: mrtest dies if suspended, moira doesn't use curses
o Remove some cruft left behind by installation procedure (/etc/hosts)
Vendor problems (eg. catman, nroff, info) have been omitted.
