Please post your wish-list items. Be as specific as possible with what you'd like to see. The more information I have, the more likely it will be to be included. Relevant links to forum threads, web sites, examples, how-to's, etc. will be appreciated.

I have two items already.

1) Better BT support. I like this approach:

2) Configurable HDD spin down

I'm sure there'll be much, much more.

For a long while I used your custom firmware, but I kept having trouble configuring it the way I wanted. The Asus component kept wanting to try to take over, and it wouldn't allow some functions to be configured how one would like.

So here is a wishlist:

1. User-configurable dnsmasq for both dns function and for dhcp server. IP of local machines configurable given their mac address.
2. HDD spindown.
3. Better "Download Master" ... the mldonkey approach looks very good.
4. User-editable firewall rules.
5. Up-to-date samba
6. mail server - xmail or some combination of sendmail/fetchmail/postfix
7. webmin interface bound to local lan would be very nice
8. Installable optware ipkg support built in
9. CUPS print server
10. Full openssh server (otherwise dropbear would do)
11. termcap with console utilities: screen mc nano etc would be good
12. wpa security option for wireless as well as wep
13. A light web server. Lighttpd or php-thttpd, or perhaps appweb or cherokee.

If required, then support for a swapfile would be good.

I don't want much, hey!
