** RDC people want to import/export connections rather than profiles - want to see filters self-contained in connection. Might want to solve this by treating connection as a profile with a single connection, and merge it into a different profile. Or store the stuff under the connection itself.

** What if a subsystem does not have a service layer? - Return null for getServiceType()

+
** Existing code that checks whether something has a service needs to be changed: '''AI DaveD''' Find references to IServiceSubSystem
 +
** {{bug|217894}} Subsystem Configuration Families - subsystem category would be orthogonal to subsystem family -- family would be related to connector service -- '''AI All''' comment on the bug

** Import/export connections rather than profiles - extend the persistence provider for import/export. Use a profile that only contains those things relevant to the exported elements, and merge it on import (or instantiate + copy).

** EFS and encodings - DaveM to put Martin on CC of the bug(s) he filed against Platform
+
** (TPF) product teams extended SystemView in the past, no response from them
** (TPF) product teams extended SystemView in the past, which is now internal: provide a public Composite that wraps SystemView and that they can extend? E.g. they provided workspace objects along remote objects. AI file bugzilla items for concrete use cases and discuss them there.
+
** {{Bug|207180}} - Remove "Encoding" control from the Property Pages
+
** {{Bug|209593}} - UNIX permissions and ownership
+
*** Martin finds it odd that IRemoteFile adapts to IFilePermissionsService... shouldn't the IFileService adapt to it? -
+
*** Martin thinks that IHostFile objects should be immutable in order to make caching and threading safer - can we get rid of IHostFile#renameTo() ? Only the actual (Service) implementation should be able to create / change IHostFile objects. How to deal with "pending" permissions? Use a queue to avoid duplicate queries in dstore?
+
**** unlike permissions, "name" identifies a file via getAbsoluteName() -- that led to problems in the past
+
**** boils down to the question how reiably we think we understand the remote system
+
**** similar to what we had with setReadOnly() -- need to know when we need to refresh
+
**** Martin: The SERVICE should decide whether it wants to re-query or use the (locally modified) object
+
**** Dave: But if it's delegated to the service, we need to make the UI aware of the changes
