wolffd@0: The 4 categories give a rough time as to when a task should be done,
wolffd@0: and reflect an assessment of the task's ease multiplied by its importance.
wolffd@0: Thus, orthogonal layouts are extremely important but not easy,
wolffd@0: so they fall into category 2. The following denote owners:

wolffd@0: ALL - Revise the buglist wolffd@0: SCN - Update dot/neatoguide wolffd@0:wolffd@0:
wolffd@0: SCN - Lightweight edge labels in dot wolffd@0: ? - Lightweight node labels in dot, just placed outside nodes. wolffd@0: SCN - Treemaps wolffd@0: JCE - Extend attribute set for line styles wolffd@0: JCE - Allow arrowheads in the middle of edges wolffd@0: JCE - Support single, uniform font descriptors à la pango wolffd@0: ? - Move generic node adjustment and spline routing out of neato wolffd@0: ERG - New text labels with font elements <B>, <I>, <TT>, etc. (support via fontconfig or egregious hacks) wolffd@0: AB - Create Graph editor for Topview/Graphviz with OpenGL and GTK. (smyrna - in process) (Deprecate use of lefty) wolffd@0: YH/ERG - Clusters in sfdp wolffd@0: YH/ERG - Fixed nodes in sfdp wolffd@0:wolffd@0:
wolffd@0: SCN/AB - New dot core: wolffd@0: - cgraph wolffd@0: - new rank assignment (have prototype) wolffd@0: - new mincross + clusters (partial prototype) wolffd@0: - symmetrize layouts wolffd@0: - Ulrik's improvements with network simplex wolffd@0: JCE - Shapes wolffd@0: - SVG grammar or other grammar to specify node and arrow shapes wolffd@0: - user-defined nodes in all code generators wolffd@0: YH/ERG - additional graph packing strategies wolffd@0: ? - Filters for GraphML and Chaco formats. wolffd@0: ? - Library for bundled edges (Given two sets of nodes, with positions, wolffd@0: forming a bipartite graph, return splines to bundle the edges together) wolffd@0: ? - better spacing of edges along the side of a node, especially wolffd@0: exposed port sides. Perhaps extend compass points to S, N, E, W to wolffd@0: mean anywhere along that side. wolffd@0: ? - Tabular layout in rows and columns in dot (swim lanes) wolffd@0: ? - Enable arbitrary depth clusters in neato using IPSEP wolffd@0: ? - Allow mixed edge types within the same graph wolffd@0: wolffd@0:wolffd@0:
wolffd@0: Generic label placement, with and without modifying graph layout. wolffd@0: Support for compound graphs. wolffd@0: Spline router improvement (Gordon's improvements, alpha adjustments, fewer wolffd@0: inflection points) wolffd@0: Fast incremental hierarchical layout wolffd@0: Edge routing with just two vnodes per edge (after Kaufmann) wolffd@0: Graph language improvements wolffd@0: local name spaces wolffd@0: subclassing wolffd@0: Shapes - new parallelogram shape where angle is fixed for varying text wolffd@0: Orthogonal layouts. wolffd@0: Support rank=min/max within the context of a cluster wolffd@0:wolffd@0:
wolffd@0: Incremental layouts wolffd@0: Dot with orthogonal, coalesced edges (e.g., this) wolffd@0: Constraint-based layouts wolffd@0: Display of large-graphs (hair ball problem) wolffd@0: - relaxing constraining edges wolffd@0: - edge bundles wolffd@0: Venn diagrams wolffd@0: Integration of geographic info - maps wolffd@0:wolffd@0:
wolffd@0: JCE - Extend attribute set for line thickness wolffd@0: ERG - New text labels with font elements <FONT> wolffd@0: ERG - Allow edges as line segments and polylines wolffd@0: ERG - New multiedge code wolffd@0: YH/ERG - New overlap adjustment strategies wolffd@0: YH - Faster fdp (sfdp) wolffd@0: ERG - Variable port depending on layout wolffd@0: ERG - Better aspect ratio in dot wolffd@0: ERG - New orthogonal routing code wolffd@0: JCE - use floats not ints where appropriate wolffd@0: YH - Filters for Matrix Market wolffd@0:wolffd@0:
wolffd@0: JCE - Revise GV_FILE_PATH to work as directory list; remove loose ends wolffd@0: ERG - eliminate the nonlinear adjustment wolffd@0: - use convex hull or alpha shapes wolffd@0:wolffd@0: wolffd@0:
