Here are some things to think about if you are interested in
contributing to the Linux-PAM effort.

1. If you have a suggestion mail the pam-list!

2. TODO:Comments
   -------------

 [modules]

pam_timeshould log an error if it denies access.

pam_smartcard??  It has already started to happen. (Alex Yuriev has a
smart-card module...)

pam_floppy??A alternative login mechanism might involve
authenticating with a personal specially
formatted floppy!? (got to make some use of
all those strange Linux incompatible floppies
I keep getting from ISPs ;^)

pam_???If you are interested in another type of
authentication method--just make a module!
If you want it registered/some help, email the
list.

 [misc]

SVGA & X-convCurrently, libpam-misc contains a text-only
conversation function. A graphical one,
for X or SVGA would be very welcome,
[Ben Buxton is working on an X one (as of
1996/12/1)] applications like xlock
etc.. would benefit from this.


Issues that need to be resolved:
--------------------------------

- can we support the use_mapped_pass flag without running into problems
  with ITAR rules? [this problem is likely to mutate. The DCE-RFC
  people are considering the addition of a mapping module type - one
  that other modules can use to safely store passwords...]

  - anyone know where someone to email for FREE legal advice/support?
