Beyond the need to review/renew existing proposals, I see two major topics
- improving security and privacy in fidonet, making it a viable alternative for safe communication. Existing approaches are dated and incomplete.
- often writing a fido messages feels crippled compared to an email, mostly because of the lack of support for embedded images and attachments, but also because text formatting becomes an issue. This, providing compatible mechanics for transporting larger messages with richer content is a major area for advancement. This means option more reliable text formatting and the inclusion of Images. Something that is simple to implement based on existing internet- and FTSC standards.
