[TSVN] TODO list for 1.1.0

From: SteveKing <steveking_at_gmx.ch>

The 1.0.7 release seems to create a lot of traffic on the mailing list,
so I'd like to summarize the things that bother you:

- If the proxy-settings in "Control Panel - Internet Options" are not
correct, then the IE most likely still works, but TSVN doesn't. This
confuses many people. So this has to be changed. Either by TSVN doing
some checks if the settings are really ok or by providing a separate
settings checkbox (e.g. "use IE settings").
- The disabled "OK" button in the commit dialog and the "bugreports"
show how many people are committing without writing any log messages
(!!!). So I'll set the minimum log length to zero by default.
(just for the record: If you guys ever work on the same project as me,
I'll beat every one of you until you write useful log messages. Yes, I
know I'm not a big guy, but I'll do it anyway! ;)

There are some more changes I'd like to do for the 1.1.x release:
- wrap all Subversion error messages with our own hints (e.g. an
"out-of-date" error message would then tell the user to do an update and
try again)
- write our own authentication provider which would then encrypt the
authentication data (at least on Win2k and XP - the other OSes are so
insecure that encrypting is pretty much useless anyway).

But the first thing I have to do is to get Subversion 1.1.x to compile.
The "-t vcproj" build is broken until someone with some knowledge in
perl fixes that...
