About this wishlist

This is the list of bugs and wishes for derivepassphrase. It uses the same terminology and style as PuTTY’s wishlist. By design, the list distinguishes solely between bugs and wishes, and focuses strongly on the facts, not on the plans for implementation.¹ The entries are named, not numbered, and the summaries are written by hand.

The list is built statically; there is no interactive way to submit entries or commentary on an entry, or to run search queries against the entry database. To submit entries or commentary, contact the authors directly; see the website imprint and the embedded author info in version control. To run search queries or other automated queries against the entry database, check out the wishlist branch from version control and parse the entry files directly.

See also the entry format specification.

1. See also the essay Separation of concerns in a bug tracker by PuTTY’s principal author, Simon Tatham. Like PuTTY, derivepassphrase is a “more serious free-software hobby project” developed by one principal author who also cannot definitively commit to any specific time plan. As such, derivepassphrase also does not have a formal plans table (beyond the very coarse Priority field). ↩
