 - Starnet: You might consider running [Smart Group Server XL](https://github.com/F4FXL/smart-group-server-xl) from a dedicated computer instead.
 - Announcement: same can be achieved using VoiceTransmit.
 - APRSGateway capability: I would prefer to have some sort of TCP "APRS-IS proxy" program sitting between the program and the APRS server, thus keeping the ability to directly connect to APRS-IS or not, depending on the system owner wish. I run mostly DStar Only repeaters, having an additional program to maintain is unnecessary burden.
-- DRats : Is on the to-do list see [#6](#6)
 - CallSign Server : this is a legacy from the dead project xreflector.net, I will most probably drop it for good.

-- DPlus, DExtra and G2 NAT Traversal using ircddb network as rendez-vous server
+- DPlus, DExtra and G2 NAT Traversal using ircddb network as rendez-vous server. I.e. it is not required to open firewall ports for Callsign Routing or Gateway calls. however it is still recommended to do so. But NAT Traversal will bring more flexibility when operating on CGNAT (Mobile) Networks.
-- Forward RSMS1A app messages from/to  APRS-IS Network, yes you can send/receive messages to and from aprs.
+- Forward RSMS1A app messages from/to  APRS-IS Network, yes you can send/receive messages to and from aprs. Yes, you can send messages to APRS stations and Vice Versa. Additionnally part of the message is sent as Text Dat in the slow data. This allows you to read the message dirdclty on your radio screen.
 - Repeater Link status is sent to APRS-IS as a status frame

   - No banging on every gateway: use ircDDB (or something else) as mitigation server to notify peer
   - Support for all protocols (G2, DExtra, DPlus) DCS does nto make sense as it was historically never used as protocol for linking repeaters

 - ☑ Migrate all the "accessories" (VoiceTransmit, RemoteControl ...)
 - ☒ Automatic refresh of host files
 - ☒ Reduce ircDDB dependency, build something more P2P, maybe based on [Distributed Hashtable](https://github.com/DavidKeller/kademlia) ?
