Unicode support
finish byte <-> utf8 and localencoding <-> utf8 conversions
make "$bytestr$charstr" do the right conversion
- a way to set the "system" discipline (binmode("!crlf!utf16") maybe?)
- nice IO::Filter module to push/pop disciplines
eliminate need for "use utf8;"
- add -C switch that sets ${^WIDE_SYSTEM_CALLS}
support C<print v1.2.3>
make C<v123> mean C<chr(123)> (if !exists(&v123))
autoload utf8_heavy.pl's swash routines in swash_init()
work out DLL versioning
Miscellaneous
- magic_setisa should be made to update %FIELDS [???]
add new modules (Archive::Tar, Compress::Zlib, CPAN::FTP?)
replace pod2html with new PodtoHtml? (requires other modules from CPAN)
automate testing with large parts of CPAN
