[Alephmodular-devel] Goals for 0.3

[Br'fin <br...@ma...>]

Here's my current list of goals for 0.3

	Code cleanup
	Basic development practices
	Basic application identification


Cleanup and Basic development practices go hand in hand

	It consists of
		No warnings except what we put in with #warning

		Consistency of variable definition
			Do we use short or uint16?
			I must admit the latter is very clear for each platform.

		Consistency of memory allocation
			Do we use new/delete or malloc/free
			I'm inclined to go new/delete if just becuase the resulting
			memory allocation is already typed (no typecast needed)

		Adding #ifdefs to header files to prevent multiple inclusion

		Branding each file with a CVS $Id line
	
		Limiting of typecasts if possible
			I'd much rather fix the various type conversion warnings by using
			the correct type instead of using casts. I got burned by some
			during the Carbonization process.
			(This mostly applies to fixing variable conversion warnings as
			opposed to auditing code for this currently)

Basic application identification

	License/Distribution boilerplate on text files

	Application Type meta-data (MacOS builds only)

Refinement of basic release package
