-BEFORE REDIS 1.0.0-rc1
+Redis TODO and Roadmap
+----------------------
 
-- GETSET
-- Fix pure-PHP lib version 4 for the new protocol
-- persistent expires
-- network layer stresser in test in demo
-- maxclients directive
-- check 'server.dirty' everywere
-- replication automated tests
-- replication non stopping master<->slave syncronization
-- an external tool able to perform the 'difference' between two Redis servers. It's like 'diff', but against Redis servers, and the output is the set of commands needed to turn the first server into the second, suitable to be sent via netcat.
+VERSION 2.2 TODO (Optimizations and latency)
+============================================
 
-   $ ./redis-diff 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 > diff.txt
-   $ cat diff.txt | nc 192.168.1.1 6379
-   $ ./redis-diff 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2
-   $ # No output now the servers are identical
+* Support for syslog(3).
+* Change the implementation of ZCOUNT to use the augmented skiplist in order to be much faster.
+* Add an explicit test for MULTI/EXEC reloaded in the AOF.
+* Command table -> hash table, with support for command renaming
 
-This command should be smart and don't use too much memory, that is, take two connections at the same time against the two servers and perform the comparison key by key. Probably the initial "KEYS *" is unavoidable.
+VM TODO
+=======
 
-- objects sharing configuration, add the directive "objectsharingpool <size>"
+* Use multiple open FDs against the VM file, one for thread.
+* Check what happens performance-wise if instead of creating threads again and again the same threads are reused forever. Note: this requires a way to disable this clients in the child, but waiting for empty new jobs queue can be enough.
 
-FUTURE HINTS
+STRING COMMANDS
+===============
 
-- if in-memory values compression will be implemented, make sure to implement this so that addReply() is able to handle compressed objects, just creating an uncompressed version on the fly and adding this to the output queue instead of the original one. When insetad we need to look at the object string value (SORT BY for example), call a function that will turn the object into an uncompresed one.
+* Implement STRLEN, PEEK, POKE, SETBIT, GETBIT
+
+OTHER IMPORTANT THINGS THAT WILL BE ADDED BUT I'M NOT SURE WHEN
+===============================================================
+
+BIG ONES:
+
+* BRPOPLPUSH
+* Specially encoded memory-saving integer sets.
+* A command to export a JSON dump (there should be mostly working patch needing major reworking).
+* Specially encoded sets of integers (this includes a big refactoring providing an higher level layer for Sets manipulation)
+
+SMALL ONES:
+
+* If sizeof(double) == sizeof(void*) we could store the double value of sorted sets directly in place of the pointer instead of allocating it in the heap.
+* Delete on writes against expire policy should only happen after argument parsing for commands doing their own arg parsing stuff.
+* Give errors when incrementing a key that does not look like an integer, when providing as a sorted set score something can't be parsed as a double, and so forth.
+* MSADD (n keys) (n values). See this thread in the Redis google group: http://groups.google.com/group/redis-db/browse_thread/thread/e766d84eb375cd41
+* Don't save empty lists / sets / zsets on disk with snapshotting.
+* Remove keys when a list / set / zset reaches length of 0.
+* An option to exec a command slave-side if the master connection is lost: even cooler: if the script returns "0" the slave elects itself as master, otherwise continue trying to reconnect.
+* PING the master from time to time to check if it's gone.
+
+THE "MAYBE" TODO LIST: things that may or may not get implemented
+=================================================================
+
+Most of this can be seen just as proposals, the fact they are in this list
+it's not a guarantee they'll ever get implemented ;)
+
+* SORT: Don't copy the list into a vector when BY argument is constant.
+* Write the hash table size of every db in the dump, so that Redis can resize the hash table just one time when loading a big DB.
+* Byte Array type (BA prefixed commands): BASETBIT BAGETBIT BASETU8 U16 U32 U64 S8 S16 S32 S64, ability to atomically INCRBY all the base types. BARANGE to get a range of bytes as a bulk value, BASETRANGE to set a range of bytes.
+* Read-only mode.
+* Kill the delete-on-write behavior of expires, replicating DELs
+* Multiple BY in SORT.
+
+KNOWN BUGS
+==========
+
+* LRANGE and other commands are using 32 bit integers for ranges, and overflows are not detected. So LRANGE mylist 0 23498204823094823904823904 will have random effects.
+
+REDIS CLI TODO
+==============
+
+* Computer parsable output generation
+* Memoize return values so that they can be used later as arguments, like $1
