[Cvsnt] Next release features

[Matthias Mohr]

I have some requests which would make the work with several repositories easier:

  so called "template" repositories, which can be used as base for new repositories
  and which can be selected when creating a new one (I know this can be done by
  copying the CVSROOT-directory but this is not "easy enough" :-)
  or "dependencies" between repositories, so I select an "father" (or mother :-) of a
  new repository and all the settings of that parent-repository will be used and I only
  have to change the things which are different to that. If I later change the settings of
  the parent-repository, it should also affect unchanged settings of child-repositories...

  it would also be nice to have an additional feature of "listing" several repositories from
  the client side, e.g. by setting the CVSROOT to something which is not a real repository,
  but a so called "super-repository".
  It would be nice, if a client (e.g. WinCVS or TortoiseCVS) would be able to show me
    all available repositories at the server (or maybe only all repositories where the given
    username has access to)

  It would also be nice to have the control-panel entries for a server installed at remote
    workstations, so I can add and remove new repositories, start and stop the service, ...
    from other machines. There must be something in like "connect to server" where I
    can select different CVSNT-Servers and connect to them and see and change the
    settings of that server.

  An API to add some server-side binary diff functionality would also be nice (e.g. for
  common Windows file-formats like MS-Word and MS-Excel).

What do you think about my wishes ?

with regards,
Matthias
