Here's a sample of ideas for new Amahi projects
Hard
- Add support for UPnP control of home routers from within the setup pages, e.g. to easily and dynamically control settings like DHCP server enable/disable, port forwarding, etc.
- Add support for Ubuntu or, in general, debian-based distributions
- Add support for an Android based distribution
- Enhance REST API to support management from other interfaces (eg. Android, iPhone)
- Build Android or iPhone interface to control home server
- Integrate one of the more complex applications, such as
- MythTV back-end
- FUPPES UPnP server (or other UPnP/DLNA server, eg. uShare, mediatomb)
- firewall (Shorewall, moonwall, ...)
- Asterisk
- OpenPBX
- Integration of LDAP as a back-end management system
- Feature development (examples):
- Easily change domain/DHCP settings managed by Amahi
- Use external and internal domain (internet/intranet)
- Change share servers to use a plugin system to allow each share to select which server they use
- Browseable selection of files and paths in dashboard
- Ability to add/mount disks via browser interface
- Seamlessly add drives as an option for share points
Medium
- Integrate a mail server
- Enhance the theme engine to handle mainstream templates directly or with minimal configuration (e.g. Drupal, Wordpress, or others)
- Replace BIND as DNS server by a more dynamic, reconfigurable DNS server
- Build an integrated contact manager application
Easy
- Improve the theme engine to handle more sophisticated themes
- For the more design-oriented, build new and exciting themes
