** Remark in #502 (extract meta-data about audio/video streams)
** Bug #390 (send time in Informer)
** Start/end times, duration and rate in RST @Image@ and @SoundChunk@ types
** Again: more powerful wire-schema designators, please
** Extend set of legal scope characters?
** Notifying client code of errors (meta-events?)
** Configuration
*** Language-specific configuration? #551
** Nachrichtenfilterung
* Constness of Events / Event Payloads to prevent side-effects in local transport

h3. General Interest

* Conceptual Stuff
** Configuration
** "Param service + X" (must also be suitable for component layer, cf. CCA)
** Introspection / Naming

** Component Layer: CCA or sth that is extracted from CCA?
** ICL / Computer Vision Integration with RSB
** Integration of/relation to computer vision/data flow frameworks?

** Ingo's data-mapper/"rosetta stone" project
** YARP/ROS Integration

** Verbindungsüberwachung (Listener-Awareness)
** IDL retrieval (see [[Meetings2011-09-22#Design-Decisions]])
** RST Release Management / Type Consolidation

** Hierarchical / Composite Synchronous Data Distribution / Subscription
** Website / Documentation / Marketing
** Python3 Support (probably explained along MORSE prototype)
** Transport-level Best Practices (Spread+TCP+InProcess)
** ZeroMQ Exploration
** RSB on Android
** Use RETF RD on Message Data Type References within RSB
* Toolkit Level but related
** Component Migration: ISR as Example
** ELAN / RSBag / Video Conversion
** "Catalogue maintenance session"

* Reports
** BHA Steuerung
** ISY retrospective
** HUMAVIPS Y2 data recording experience
* Other Stuff
** RSBag advertising? (see [[Meetings2011-09-22#Feedback]])
