Hello, this is what i plan to do several days ago:

* Provide a web interface and/or GUI application to allow clients connect to
the authpf server;

Write cgi scripts with Python for web interface and Python+wxPython for GUI
application.

About GUI application, it only provide a window and a system tray:
- The window:
   * Provide three input area:
username/password/authpf-server-address(IP/hostname);
   * Minimal/Close to system tray;
- System tray:
   * Show the connection status simply;
   * Popup a memu when right click on it, allow user to stop the connection;


This is just a plan.
I'm learning Python and not a professional programmer, i will start to code
about one month later(looking for work now),  and the code maybe dirty and
insecurity.

I know this is a simple program, maybe somebody can finish it in one day,
but maybe one month for me :)

This is my plan(Chinese):
