? Here? are? some? pending? issues which I've partially sorted by priority (at least the top half). Please add the missing ones and let's try to finish sorting it, with a view to planify our work.
* Add blocker (this also has to do with privacy). ???A? full? RE-based? one? may? have? significant? overhead (test required),? but? simple string-matching may do most of the trick. I've? also? thought? for? a? long? time? that? a "don't load from other? sites"? preference? may? help a lot. The whole topic needs some thought but it's not hard to implement. ???e.g. doubleclick.
Or you could just point users to privoxy, junkbuster, WWWOFFLE, and/or polipo.
I don't see any mention of a limit on concurrent connections that was proposed earlier, and as far as I know it hasn't been implemented. In addition to the reasons given earlier, it is very frustrating to have to implement your own traffic-shaping just to avoid being blocked by a rate/connection-limiting firewall, or to avoid being blocklisted by a site you had hoped to visit. I'd hate to see dillo gain a reputation as a problematic UserAgent, and perhaps be blocked by some heavy-handed administrators.
That was an incomplete list to start sorting priorities. * Limit number of concurrent connections. is certainly a valid item, also as is * Document CCC, dlib and dillo in doxygen format. Please Johannes or corvid, sort the titles of the items we have so far in this thread so we can sort them and do our planning. -- Cheers Jorge.-
