+ToDo list for tbot
+==================
+
+please look also into the tbot ToDo list.
+https://github.com/hsdenx/tbot/blob/master/ToDo
+
+- cleanup tbot code:
+ - remove all retry / timeout pieces of code
+ - clean up tbot function names, as I am not good in
+ giving function a understandable name ;-)
+ - as I am not a python programmer, cleanup whole tbot code
+
+- introduce a "layering" like yocto do, so U-Boot TC can integrated
+ into U-Boot source code.
+
+ Proposal:
+ introduce subdirs in "src/tc"
+
+ lab: all lab specific stuff
+ lab/common: common lab stuff (for example ssh handling)
+ lab/ssh_std: ssh_std specific stuff
+
+ u-boot: all u-boot tests
+ u-boot/common: common u-boot tc
+ u-boot/duts: DUTS tc
+ u-boot-dxr2: all u-boot dxr2 board specific tc
+
+ board: board tc
+ board/common: common board tc
+ board/dxr2: all tc for dxr2 board
+
+ linux: all linux tc
+ linux/common: common linux tc
+ linux/dxr2
+
+ - move U-Boot special TC to U-Boot source
+ -> need a mechanism in tbot, how it gets automatically for example
+ U-Boot TC from U-Boot source...
+ -> add a consistency checker
+
+- simplify tbot log output (seperate a lot of output which is currently
+ in INFO logging level, to another logging level)
+ started (new loglevel "CON", whih prints read/write from console only), see:
+ https://github.com/hsdenx/tbot/commit/b4ab2567ad8c19ad53f785203159d3c8465a21c6
+ - make the timestamp configurable
+
+- Open more than 2 filehandles ?
+ Do we need for more complex TC more than 2 filehandles?
+
+- Find a way to document all TC and document all variables they use in an
+ automated way.
+
+- write a lot of more TC
+
+- get U-Boot configuration settings from current U-Boot code and use
+ them in U-Boot TC-es
