Current TODO

============

- Add error checking to create popup if something goes awry

- Currently when the app is closed, the child(daemon processes) are killed, find a way to either keep them alive or to keep the app from closing until they have finished.

- Fix camera script to test doing things before doing them (like test if lens open before opening)

Future TODO

===========

- Make photostrip creation more abstract

    - be able to handle different number of pictures

    - be able to handle different offsets

    - possibly switch to using PIL (Python Imaging Library)

- Cleanup config class and make more pythonic

- Add to config file parsing

    - flickr bool (Fix)

    - email from address

    - email relay info

    - banner graphic

    - photostrip template

    - how long to display each image

- fix config file parsing to gracefully handle missing values

- possibly set to show picture shortly after taking, rinse and repeat until number of photos wanted for strip is taken, instead of firing pictures in succession

- would be great to have a live view of the cam, or at least the review type picture from camera instead of having to wait for download

- Fix camera hangs (maybe requiring migrating from ptpcam to chdkptp)

- Config file option for flickr visibility (currently forces is_public)

- GUI for flickr api approval

    - currently command line based

    - popup is defined in myphotobooth.glade

    - should move ConfigFile parsing to MyPhotoBoothApp class (That way FlickrUploader is initiated after the gtk builder is created)

- Better Error Checking/handling

    - flickr api

    - others

- Logging

    - switch to a logging module, (default python logging is broken with python-flickrapi)

    - add log based logging

- Add support for other tetherable cameras

- Add support for other photosharing sites

- Code cleanup

    - break up into modules

    - Fix ugly hacks 

    - Better checking around config file parsing

    - refactor so that actions like email, flickr are using a plugin type architecture

- Package

    - Script to create RPM/Deb package

- Makefile

    - targets for installing, cleaning, packaging

- submit to fedora repo

    - may need to package ptpcam as a prerequisite
