TODO:

WiFi:
- WiFi does not come to life after setup with new 2020.02.1 version (found cause: see systemd preset task above)
- Add 5G support to the wifi system (Country setting most likely)

Enclosure:  
- Implement initial framebuffer drawing GUI
  * Look into showing the pairing code on the HDMI as well (look at mycroft's system)
  * Look into showing the IP address on the HDMI as well (look at mycroft's system)
  * Look into combining the wifi code, the framebuffer code and the enclosure code into one system.
- Move over / Integrated the WiFi setup into the Enclosure code.
  * Change WifiSetup splash; MycroftOS-Setup -> MycroftOS-WiFiSetup
  * Have a look at the wifi scan to exclude non real SSID (“ID List”)
  * Figure out how to make the wifi password box to be able to show password (eye icon)
- Enclosure code for enabling services, halt, reboot, etc
- Enclosure code for pulseaudio control (volume mostly)

System:
- Systemd notify and Watchdog support to make starting/stopping/restarting and failures way more robust. [WIP]
- Enable (hardware) watchdog support.
- Include changing the hostname from the MycroftOS settings skill without messing up above MAC addition.
- Look into the msm error/warning "no package manager found" (there is none, but just handle the warning)
- Included volume skill can't be updated
  * Should be changed to pulseaudio anyway, but...
  * Check if the included volume-skill can be updated, via offical git commits
- Avahi zero config publish to be set up (pulseaudio, mpd, snapcast, etc.)
- MycroftOS settings skill to be able to setup smart speaker services / software
- VLC Framebuffer video playing support (if not accelerated, check omxplayer but needs to be created as audio backend within mycroft)
- Add and make configurable, where sound output has to go;
  * BT Speaker (A2DP) normal (Use a bluetooth speaker as output)
  * Bluetooth mic/speaker combo support using HSP (use headsets as input/output for Mycroft)
  * Airplay (example: SONOS) using module-raop-discover and module-raop-sink of PulseAudio
  * Autoconnect trusted BT devices as soon as it sees them using: module-switch-on-connect from PulseAudio

Documentation:
- Change README with all new changes [WIP]
- Update / Complete "documentation" folder and docs
  * Building.md
  * Boards.md
  * Kernel.md
  * Python-packages.md
- Instructions / Wiki for most common and different aspects and functions;
  * Installation
  * First run
  * Configuration
    - Smart speaker functions
	- System Services
  * Spotify setup
  * Squeezelite setup
  * Snapcast Client/Server setup
  * Bluetooth speaker output setup
  * Airplay speaker output setup

Cleanup & Maintenance:
- Fix / Check all Buildroot package dependencies (SELECT and DEPENDS references within Config.in)
- Cleanup buildroot config file
  * remove / disable any unused packages that might have slipped in while testing / debugging / etc.
- Make sure all Skills from the market can install (python dependencies either available or pre-installed)
