0.9 Requests?

[Howard Jones <howie@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

After a break from it for a little while, I'm back in the mood for 
Weathermap coding! :-)

I'm going back through the forums and this list looking for features 
that never made it. So far, my todo list for 0.9 is:

* Text formatting in strings. Printf/SSI style escapes to allow node 
labels to include things like timestamps or data values
* Pluggable data sources. I have already re-written the TARGET/ReadData 
code to allow others to easily add new types of TARGET. I have a list of 
new sources planned. Ueli's rrd extension code fits in here.
* TARGETs for NODEs. Allow you to change the colour of a NODE based on 
external data.
* Named SCALEs. Since you might have a different type of data for your 
NODEs, you may want more than one SCALE set.
* OVERLIBCAPTION (Jared)
* Link Comments/Descriptions/Annotations (maybe)
* Icon scale-to-fit
* Time-travel with RRDs - draw a map for any time you have data for.
* Whole new editor (again). Have some prototype stuff here. Full drag/drop.
* NINKs/LODEs. Still don't have a good name for these. A link with only 
one NODE. Drawn as a ying-yang symbol. Allows for very dense maps of 
things like switch ports.

Any others? I think that the NODE TARGETs, formatting strings and 
pluggable targets combine to solve most requests I knew of.

Cheers,

Howie
