Final items for 1.37 before release:
1. Fix bugs
-- Look at fixing restore status stats in SD.
+- Mount after manually unloading changer causes hang in SD
+- Check if ANSI tape labeling works with drive in
+ read-only mode.

- Check "update slots=7 scan storage=DLT drive=0" with
non-bacula tape in the drive.
- --without-openssl breaks at least on Solaris.
-- Figure out how to package gui, and rescue programs.
-- Test TLS.
- Arno had to do -- to get update slots=x to work
UPDATE Media SET InChanger=0,Slot=0 WHERE InChanger>0 AND Slot>0; (MySQL)
-- Add recycle event.
-- Add scratch pool event.
-- Implement NeedVolume event
-- Add Win32 FileSet definition somewhere
-
-
Document:
-- datadir for po files.
-- AM_GNU_GETTEXT finds the library if you specify
- --with-libintl-prefix
+- Does ClientRunAfterJob fail the job on a bad return code?
- Document cleaning up the spool files:
db, pid, state, bsr, mail, conmsg, spool
- Document the multiple-drive-changer.txt script.
- Pruning with Admin job.
-- Restore of all files for a Job or set of jobs even if the file
- records have been removed from the catalog.
- Does WildFile match against full name? Doc.
For 1.39:
+- Add a new Autochanger directive "Global lock = yes|no"
+ that provides a global lock on calling mtx-changer so
+ that multiple autochanger definitions can reference
+ the same physical autochanger.
+- Look at -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
+- Close STDOUT if debug_level == 0
+- Add recycle event.
+- Add scratch pool event.
+- Implement NeedVolume event
+- Add Win32 FileSet definition somewhere
+- Look at fixing restore status stats in SD.
+- Make selection of Database used in restore correspond to
+ client.
+- implement a mode that says when a hard read error is
+ encountered, read many times (as it currently does), and if the
+ block cannot be read, skip to the next block, and try again. If
+ that fails, skip to the next file and try again, ...
+- Add ACL to restore only to original location.
+- Add a recursive mark command (rmark) to restore.
+- "Minimum Job Interval = nnn" sets minimum interval between Jobs
+ of the same level and does not permit multiple simultaneous
+ running of that Job (i.e. lets any previous invocation finish
+ before doing Interval testing).
- Look at simplifying File exclusions.
- Fix store_yesno to be store_bitmask.
- New directive "Delete purged Volumes"
wants a Volume that is released but in another drive --
chaos.
- Run the regression scripts on Solaris and FreeBSD
+- Figure out how to package gui, and rescue programs.
+- Add a .dir command to restore tree code to eliminate the problem
