In the fileserver/volserver, cloning needs to be implemented. Also,
some cleaning up and testing of dump/restore has to be done.

The ptserver and vlserver has to be fixed, because they don't really
work properly at the moment. They are in the middle of a transition to
a "proper" database backend. Also, replication needs to be added.

What's important to remember is that the fileserver/volserver
development is completely independent from the database server
development, since you can mix file servers in a cell.

The database servers are really quite simple, but I personally think
it's much more interesting to have a file server at the moment.

What really needs to be done is to test the usability. Set up a file
server and take notes. What is difficult to do? What is difficult to
understand? What is really annoying?
