+Needed before release
+
+* Add facilities for debugging Scheme programs.
+
+Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se> is working on this. The low-level
+functions are available, but need a user interface. He has also
+written extensisons to GDB to allow it to print lispy values in lispy
+notation when debugging Guile's C code.
+
+* Merge in the Cygnus threads package.
+
+This is done, but needs debugging.
+
+* Documentation.
+
+They should be complete and accurate. They should also have more
+general explanation (right now they're strictly reference), but
+perhaps that will have to wait until after the first release.
+
+
+Desired later on
+
+* Good interface to Tk
+
+* Add a convenient facility for running a pipeline of processes
+with redirections. Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+is working on this.
+
+* Make it possible to link Guile and TK without using libtcl.a, by
+providing Guile-based replacements for the libtcl.a functions that TK
+requires.
+
+* Make ordinary lambda functions work as callbacks for Tk;
+eliminate the need for tcl-lambda.
+
+* Translators for additional languages; in particular, Perl, Python,
+TCL, Emacs Lisp, and Rexx.
+
+* Clean up declarations of C functions to use a PROTO macro
+for conditional prototypes, instead of explicit conditionals.
+
+* A package for time conversions and formatting.
