Plan

Ordered as the releases that ship it.

v0.1.0

Data

Shape: T = table, t = template, c = choice. Read every factual list from a register by a data-import/ script, as README goal 10 asks.

• Add the remaining misc tables and templates from the table below.
• Read misc.emoji from the Unicode emoji-test.txt register, and misc.car from an international make and model source; vPIC and Mobility Sweden are national, so they build en_US.car and sv_SE.car.
• Add the remaining locale categories: company, phone, finance, vehicle, words.
• Give every shipped category building-block columns, misc.uuid → variant among them, and one record shape across the national ids; re-pin the shape.
• Give the address records one column set across countries: region and municipality as columns on geo.SE.address too.
• Fill the 398 Swedish localities weighted 200 from SCB småorter.
• Accept a middle name, and draw a shipped personnummer inside a selected sex; both want a draw group sharing its family's pins. Stop the conflict error naming a rewrite that returns a different value where the read it conflicts with sits inside another category, and report a struct column's draw conflict with the path spelling a tag takes.
• Let geo.SE.locality[Lund].address descend from a selected row into the template beside the family: require the path step to reach a sibling category, and seed every draw group of the render from the outer selector's pins.
• Read email.local's and username's handles from the shipped name tables, which goal 10 asks for and the hand-written list they use today does not meet.
• Decide whether email.local and username share one list: a reference between shipped categories breaks a consumer once tagged, so it rides a 0.(x+1).0 after that.

Builtins the data cannot express

• Add {isin()} (Luhn over letters expanded to digits), {cusip()}, {aba()} (3-7-1 weights) and {vin()} (position 9 over the whole; a sample taking the WMI, since the check sits mid-string).
• Add {base64url(n)} for JWT shapes.
• Add a unix layout to date() once something needs it.

Open questions to settle

• Decide whether misc.browser becomes a parent of misc.useragent, so misc.browser[Chrome].useragent resolves. Adding a parent after v0.1.0 breaks a consumer, so it rides a 0.(x+1).0.
• Decide whether misc.timezone keeps every zone tzdb names: one added recently, Europe/Kyiv among them, is rejected by a consumer resolving it against older tzdata, and the population weight makes that zone likelier, not rarer. Today the README names the action a reader takes instead; narrowing what ships is the alternative.
• Decide whether misc.territory.country is renamed sovereign: it holds a code, and country collides with the misc.country path it replaced. A rename after v0.1.0 breaks a consumer, so it rides a 0.(x+1).0.
• Decide whether parent: territory stays, given a --data-path override of misc.territory now fails New unless misc.timezone is overridden with it.
• Decide whether the shipped url and email domains are restricted to RFC 2606's reserved names: 17 of the 40 are not, and .se, .nu, .io and .co are live ccTLDs anyone can register, while .dev and .app are HSTS-preloaded, so a browser forces http://example.dev to HTTPS. Restricting them costs the locale flavour example.se and .nu were chosen for.
• Record why fejkdata ships no pop-culture catalogue. README Decisions states the choice with no reason, because goal 10 does not supply one: it admits a hand-written set where no register exists, and Wikidata, MusicBrainz and the Gutenberg catalog are registers this plan already reads for book, instrument and animal.

Release

• Move the README's Decisions section to docs/decisions.md, leaving a one-line index of the titles in AGENTS.md, and drop the AGENTS.md line pointing decisions at the README.
• Rewrite CHANGELOG.md's [Unreleased] as what v0.1.0 holds: nothing has shipped, so "no longer paths", "where it used to fail" and "where it used to be an empty string" describe versions no reader can have installed.
• Ship prebuilt binaries so the CLI needs no Go: GoReleaser attaching them to the Gitea release the tag workflow publishes, a container image, Homebrew and Scoop. A checkout build prints devel for --version; the binaries carry the stamped tag.

v0.2.0

• Ship the full registers as packs, each a Go module with its own embed.FS and a zip for --data-path: every US place of 10,000 and more streets per locality, built by --min-population and --streets-per-locality. The default embed stays under ~1 MB per country and New under ~50 ms.
• Add the locales nb_NO, da_DK, fi_FI, de_DE, en_GB, nl_NL, fr_FR and es_ES, with person, address, phone, national id, company and date names each, and the geo/ trees NO, DK, FI, NL, FR, AU, CA, ES, GB and DE their address reads by reference; AU and CA get a tree with no locale of their own.
• Add {btc()} and {eth()}, which need sha256 and keccak for Base58Check and EIP-55.
• Pair a street with its exact postnummer, which needs an application to Lantmäteriet; today a street goes to the nearest postal code centroid. It rewrites shipped rows, so it is a major once 1.0 is cut and a minor before that.

v0.3.0

• Ship nothing breaking, which is what v1.0.0 waits for: v0.2.0 rewrites shipped rows when it pairs a street with its exact postnummer.

v1.0.0

• Cut it once the shipped data is in its record shape and one full minor has shipped with no breaking change, per the README's Versioning table. It plans no work of its own: v0.1.0 settles the record shape and v0.3.0 is the quiet minor.

Not release-bound

• Stop /cache collecting root-owned files, which today every command documented without --user leaves for the next --user one to trip over, and which the README answers with a chown a reader has to repeat. Put --user on all of them, or give the x-go anchor a user: — that one needs a mechanism, since Compose interpolates from the process environment and neither UID nor GID is exported there, so user: "${UID}:${GID}" resolves to ":".
• Publish a homepage with an in-browser generator: the library compiled to WebAssembly, so visitors generate as much data as they like in their own browser.
