OurNet::BBS::Roadmap Description

The OurNet-BBS development roadmap. OurNet::BBS::Roadmap is a Perl module with the OurNet-BBS development roadmap.SYNOPSISThere are several design goals for the OurNet-BBS:Secure Communication & StorageThe most fundamental weakness of thin-client architectures is the vulnerability of tampering, either by intercepting transmissions or preying on unencrypted data stored on the centralized server. Therefore, OurNet-BBS MUST provide means to retrieve, forward and store data securely.Multiple Representation ParadigmsIn order to translate between heterogeneous services within a common network, OurNet-BBS MUST accept both storage-based (eg. HTTP/FreeNet/LDAP) and message-based (eg. Jabber/XML-RPC) renderings, and be able to render into corresponding formats (eg. HTML/XML/MIME).Decentralized Syndication SupportMonolithic, single point-of-failure servers has remained as the state of art in telnet-based BBS networks since the very beginning, which leads to its incapability to leverage viewers, services and computing resources on client machines as well as the high failure rate in on-line services.While not an end in itself, OurNet-BBS MUST provide a clearly defined layer for writing inter-operable agent and services in a server-less environment, either by utilizing existing networks (eg. Gnutella, JXTA, FreeNet) or by creating its own network. Requirements: · Perl
