{{ Moved To Community | KGet}}
 
==Design==
 
==Development==
===Core===
* MultiSource Downloading
* Add Advanced Details support
===User Interface===
====Main View====
* Add advanced details area (show chunk view, peer view, file view, statistics view etc...). Use tabview to display multiple views.
* Add a coloured band over the mainview displaying the currently display items. For example if I select "Downloads" from the sidebar it should display "Downloads". If instead I select a specific group <groupname> it should display "Downloads - <groupname>"
* Add valid download time frame, global or individual.
* Show average transfer speed when finished
====SideBar====
* Re-import the sidebar. Might be a tree-view.
* Add a "Finished" item. This will point to the downloaded files.
* Add a popupmenu to add or delete groups by right-clicking on them.
* Implement the selection of a specific group. In this way selecting a group from the sidebar should display only its transfers.
* Make the sidebar capable of several sizes for its items (16, 22, 32, ...)
====DragBasket====
* Show downloading progress, if multiple downloads are going, show each for 1 or 2 senconds.
====SysTray====
* Implement progressive filling of the icon in the system tray.
* Use KPassivePopups to notify when all the transfers have been downloaded.
====Plasmoid====
===Usability===
* Ask the user if he/she wants to delete the transfer (or probably if he/she wants to delete the tmp-file)?
* Let the user add new download-sources to a multithreaded transfer manually
* Handle the situation when we remove a group which has transfers.
* If user resume a download and find the disk space is not enough, implement a option which can move and continue the transfer to another user-specified place.
* Add a wizard on the first app execution, where the user can set his download folders and other "vital" settings like the integration with Konqueror. Perhaps we could provide a good default like ~/downloads/.
* Check there is enough space left before downloading file
* Proxy-support, not global, only for kget (we need to wait for kdelibs)
* Right-click menu to change transfer properties (filename, destination directory, url)
* Add option to show newtransferdialog on top, using activiateWindow(). (DONE)
===Optimization===
* Move deleting of big tmp-files to a new thread.
* Profile kget and look for possible optimizations.
* Make KGets handling of many downloads smarter, (maximum number of open connections per server).
* Recursion and other wget features.
===Plugins===
====KIO====
* Save referer page for downloads.
* Preserve timestamp of downloaded files (as option)
====MultiSegment====
====MirrorSearch====
====BitTorrent====
* Fix crashes in Advanced-Details
====ContentFetch====
* Fix thread related issues.
* Polish youtube downloader.
* Prepare to write megaupload/rapidshare downloader.
* Write the baidu mp3 downloader (long term).
====MetaLink====
* GUI to create Metalinks
====mms====
====MLDonkey====
* Write a ML-Donkey-plugin, based on libkmldonkey.
