Plans for a 0.3 dev branch

I plan to split the development into bug fixing 0.2 versions and
starting a 0.3 branch for further development. The reason for the
split are probable incompatibilities between future versions and the
current ones. Oku did such already when he switched from 0.1 to 0.2.

Plans for 0.3:

- Do file and mserver querying based on online_pipe. We can use cat
  and mservdetect. Actually mservdetect was meant for this since
  0.2.0: ``This method will once replace the 'mserver' option''

- Think also about basing mbox and maildir delivery on an MDA. This
  would require an MDA then. (A specialized MDA is probably the better
  approach anyway.) Maybe move mbox delivery into a separate program
  which gets distributed to ensure some delivery capacity. A wrapping
  shell script could care about {mbox,maildir,mda}_users.

- Think about excluding the get function into a separate program. Does
  anyone uses it at all?

- Switch from autoconf/automake to ordinary makefile like they do it
  on suckless.org or in the heirloom project.

- Add more and better automated tests. I really want to have this ...
  but unfortunately, I'm not very keen on implementing it. ;-)

Comments? Suggestions?
