==From the CTP Task List==
:;Improve DICOM Anonymizer script language
::Rationalize the script language. Support true literals. Support recursive evaluation. Handle procesing of multi-valued elements better.
:;ApplicationExportService
::Implement an ExportService that passes objects to an external application.
:;FileSystem selection for XmlObjects and ZipObjects
::Implement the equivalent of fsNameTag for XmlObjects and ZipObjects in the FileStorageService.
:;Quarantine size
::Improve  the handling of large numbers of files in a quarantine.
:;Quarantine reasons
::Provide a mechanism for a pipeline stage to indicate why it has quarantined an object. Add the feature to all the anonymizers. Support display of the reasons in the QuarantineServlet.
:;Login
::Improve the security of the login process.
:;Add scripting to all anonymizer stages
::Provide a more powerful selection mechanism for determining whether an object will be anonymized, along the lines of the filter stages, except that instead of quaranting objects which to not match the script, the anonymizers will pass the objects on unmodified.
:;Encryption key
::Support a removable encryption key for the anonymizers.

==From the MIRC Task List==
:;Tagging
::Implement tagging for images, files, and MIRCdocuments, with both RadLex and free text tags.
:;User-specific Author Service templates
::Allow users to store their own author service templates for use in creating new MIRCdocuments. These templates would be in addition to the system-wide defaults. This will allow a user to tailor a template to exactly the kinds of documents he is producing, simplifying the process.
:;Multi-frame DICOM images
::Support multi-frame DICOM images in the author services. Support the CT and MR enhanced DICOM objects. 
:;Image collections
::Implement a grouping mechanism for objects in the right pane of MSTF and tab formats, providing navigation among the groups.
:;Advanced author service
::Remove the +/- button.
::Support drag/drop from the file cabinet pane to the Images section.
::Implement drag/drop for rearrangement of sections.
::Implement drag/drop for rearrangement of items within a section.
:;Document display control
::Provide a way to allow a user to change the display characteristics of a document while it is being displayed (background, icon display, format, etc.).
::Create a new category of private section, visible only to trusted users.
::Support resizing the panes in multi-paned display formats.
::Always use full-size image; (eliminate the base images).
:;Standardize options when clicking images
::Follow link; show annotation; DICOM header display.
:;Image Editor
::Implement an image editor that will support flip, rotate, zoom, pan, and cropping of base images.
::Support window width and level functions for DICOM objects as base images.


:;User viewing history
::Track a user's viewing history and support obtaining query results based on whether the documents have been seen before. Allow the user to reset the viewing history.
:;User Management
::Improve the user management mechanism to allow administrators to submit a large collection of new resident accounts more easily.


:;RadLex / Keywords feature
::Add support for RadLex terms in all author services. Implement a RadLex term browser for keywords and connect it to all document sections.
:;Double-click view of individual file in the Author Service
::Download a double-clicked file with appropriate Content-Type. (This is operational in T26 for the File Service; implement it in the file cabinet pane of the Author Service editor.)
:;User comments input when viewing documents
::Add an <b>insert-comment</b> element to the schema, allowing users who are viewing a document to add a comment to a document without being able to edit the document completely.



:;Poll for active servers
::Make query services poll their storage service list to determine which services are currently active, disabling selection of the inactive ones.
:;Storage service list schema
::Standardize the way the storage service list can be communicated between MIRC query services. Support hiding private services.
:;Counter for query page accesses
::Keep track of the number of times a query service has been accessed and show it on the query page.
:;Better searches of external search engines
::Allow searches of external search engines to be triggered from the query results page.
::Group all MIRC search fields together when searching external engines.

::Requires CME systems to publish an interface specification first.
:;SCORM export
::Implement SCORM exporting in the XML server.
:;MIRCdocument UID
::Provide UID for each MIRCdocument to allow use in CME.
 

:;Language-independent query fields
::Make it possible for queries in one language to find documents written in another.
:;Review the schema for additional elements
::Top-down review of display elements in general.
:;MIRC XML namespace 
::Support multiple namespaces to keep clinical trials metadata from colliding with MIRC schema elements.
:;ACR code service
::An ACR code browser for the MIRC site, allowing a user to navigate all the ACR codes and find codes that correspond to specific anatomy and pathology.
:;MIRC keytool
::Create an easy way for real certificates to be used in MIRC for clinical trials.
:;Backup function
::Add a backup function to the admin service to allow a backup of the necessary files to be placed in a directory, possibly on another system.
