# 3.1+ Ideas (post MVP) 

 ### Authentication 

   - External 
   - Expiring passwords 
   - REMOTE_USER support? 

 ### Authorization 

 \<put ideas here\> 

 ### Repository 

   - Versioned repositories 

 ### Content Manipulation 

   - Sync can have "sync" options. 
   - Sync options are different than "importer" attributes. 

 ### Importers 

   - Sync from multiple importers 
   - We need to support multiple importers to properly support distributions and ostree (with distributions). 
   - add auto-publish feature 

 ### Task Management 

 Allow filtering of tasks on 'completed' or 'started'. These 'meta' states are not states directly, but they represent a group of states. For instance 'completed' would be represent 'skipped', 'completed', 'failed', and 'canceled'. 

 Additional filtering support: 

   - worker 
   - started_at, filtered by less than, greater than 
   - finished_at, filtered by less than, greater than 
   - resource field on an associated ReservedResource 

 As an authenticated user I can DELETE a task 

 ### Task Scheduling 

 ### Data Exports 

 As an authenticated user, I can export a group of published repositories to a single media 

 As an authenticated user, I can export an incremental publish of a group of repositories to a single media 

 For both use cases \^, the layout needs some more discussion. 

   - maybe it is specified by the user? 
   - maybe it is maintains the published filesystem tree structure? 

 Also there are two main options in this area. 

 1\. One is a publish bundler that bundles up all the units published to disk. Then this media (e.g. an iso) is mounted and brought into another Pulp installation using a sync. This will only work for content types that don't require 'live APIs' 

 2\. Another option is to export database model data and disk content units from one Pulp to media and then import by directly adding those units to another Pulp. This could be done through the API possibly. This would allow things like Docker to be exported and imported, but it may not work for OSTree?? 

 Also there was discussion about OSTree possibly never supporting and incremental export/import due to how OSTree stores content. 

 ### Server Plugins (which content types are available and importers and publishers) 

 ### Plugin Download API 

   - FTP
