-## Automated Plotting
+## Advanced CLI Plotting
 
--   **Project description**:
-    The MSS tool is currently designed for interactive use and showing of layers in a UI. For post-campaign analysis, retrieving a standardized set of layers for hundreds of time-steps is desired, which cannot be accomplished in an efficient manner using the current UI.
-    
-    In this project, a prototype CLI tool for downloading images in an automated fashion shall be extended, tested and documented and enhanced by a GUI to configure the set of layers and time-steps to be downloaded. If feasible, the tool shall be integrated into the standard MSS UI.

 ## Catalogue Service for the Web (CSW)
 
--   **Project description**:
+- **Project description**:
 
     CSW is one element of the OGC Catalogue Service.
     We want our ogc wms server to expose a catalogue of geospatial records in XML on the Internet (over HTTP).
     The catalogue has records that describe geospatial data (e.g. KML), geospatial services (e.g. WMS), and related resources.
     The records are in XML according to the standard. 
     Our Server data should be useable by the MetaSearch of QGIS.

 # Modernize fs_filepicker
 
--   **Project description**:
+- **Project description**:
    The fs_filepicker is a GUI which we use when we select in the mss_settings.json a configuration option `{ "filepicker_default": "fs" }`
    Currently the fs_filepicker implements only a basic set of navigation elements for selecting a file and returns the fs url for accessing it.
-In the future we want to have it in a modern look and feel. 
-It should also be able to use [Non - Essential Methods of Pyfilesystem](https://docs.pyfilesystem.org/en/latest/implementers.html#non-essential-methods).
-Because of the common API of all Pyfilesystem Modules also a directory view can be implemented as tree where folders or files can point to different storages. Tests should cover new source lines.

 ## Support of simple trajectory calculations
 
--   **Project description**:
-For flight planning or analysis after the campaign it is useful to perform simple trajectory calculations. The backend will offer the option to calculate trajectories from the waypoints of the flight path to a given time. These will be visualized using as a kml overlay feature or a dedicated plugin. This feature will greatly simplify the planning of self-match flights and allow better association between the visualized maps showing the atmospheric state at certain times with the air actually sampled during the flight. The MSS server usually has already the data necessary for performing the calculations, but a simple trajectory module would need to be implemented/connected. Also, a WMS extension will need to be specified and implemented .

+We want some new features in the MSS UI using or mscolab server. For each new or existing feature we also need pytest tests.
+  * show development of flightpath versions. Currently a user can only show a older revision 
+    when that revision is pushed as top revision. We want to be able to use this by the asynchronously work mode.
+  * show more than one flightpath on a view We have campaigns with more than one aircraft. 
+    Sometimes for example they should do in different altitudes the same pattern. 
+    Therefore we need an option to add another flightpath on a view. 
+    Also it should be possible to toggle the active state, so that it is possible to alter data. 
+    On toggling a flightpath the datatable gets updated.
+  * the server can use categories to filter existing flight pathes.
+    After some defined time a flightpath should be moved to inactive state to have the UI showing
+    only current flightpathes. There should be an option for the creator to reactivate an 
+    inactive flightpath and also to inactivate one.
+  * invite link to operations Besides that one creator can add others to an operation, 
+    we want an option to get invited. by clicking on an invite link. For an creator we want that
+    different links for different roles can be created and inactivation of links should be possible.
+  * one server We have currently two servers which can be individual configured.
