 Multi-threading
     $AUTOLOAD. Hmm.
-    without USE_THREADS, change extern variable for dTHR
     consistent semantics for exit/die in threads
     SvREFCNT_dec(curstack) in threadstart() in Thread.xs
     better support for externally created threads
     Thread::Pool
-    more Configure support
     spot-check globals like statcache and global GVs for thread-safety
 
 Compiler
     auto-produce executable
     typed lexicals should affect B::CC::load_pad
     workarounds to help Win32
-    $^C to track compiler/checker status
     END blocks need saving in compiled output
     _AUTOLOAD prodding
     fix comppadlist (names in comppad_name can have fake SvCUR
 	from where newASSIGNOP steals the field)
 
 Namespace cleanup
-    symbol-space: "pl_" prefix for all global vars
-                  "Perl_" prefix for all functions
     CPP-space:	  restrict what we export from headers
-                  stop malloc()/free() pollution unless asked
     header-space: move into CORE/perl/
     API-space:    begin list of things that constitute public api
 
 MULTIPLICITY support
     complete work on safe recursive interpreters, C<Perl->new()>
+    revisit extra implicit arg that provides curthread/curinterp context
 
 Configure
-    installation layout changes to avoid overwriting old versions
+    make configuring+building away from source directory work (VPATH et al)
+    _r support
+    cross-compilation configuring
+    POSIX 1003.1 1996 Edition support
+
+Locales
+    locales across packages?
+
+Regexen
+   POSIX [=bar=] and [.zap.] would nice too but there's no API for them
+   (=bar= could be done with Unicode, though)
+   approximate matching
 
 Reliable Signals
+    custom opcodes
     alternate runops() for signal despatch
     figure out how to die() in delayed sighandler
     add tests for Thread::Signal
 
 Win32 stuff
-    automate maintenance of most PERL_OBJECT code
     get PERL_OBJECT building under gcc
+    get PERL_OBJECT building on non-win32
+    automate generation of 'protected' prototypes for CPerlObj 
     rename new headers to be consistent with the rest
     sort out the spawnvp() mess
     work out DLL versioning
-    put perlobject in $ARCHNAME so it can coexist with rest
-    get PERL_OBJECT building on non-win32?
     style-check
 
 Miscellaneous
     rename and alter ISA.pm
     magic_setisa should be made to update %FIELDS [???]
-    be generous in accepting foreign line terminations
-    make filenames 8.3 friendly, where feasible
+    add new modules (Archive::Tar, Compress::Zlib, CPAN::FTP?)
+    fix pod2html to generate relative URLs (replace with new PodtoHtml?)
+    automate testing with large parts of CPAN
+
+Ongoing
+    keep filenames 8.3 friendly, where feasible
     upgrade to newer versions of all independently maintained modules
-    add new modules (Data-Dumper, Storable?)
-    test it with large parts of CPAN
-    fix pod2html to generate relative URLs
+    comprehensive perldelta.pod
 
 Documentation
-    comprehensive perldelta.pod
     describe new age patterns
     update perl{guts,call,embed,xs} with additions, changes to API
     document Win32 choices
-    rework INSTALL to reflect changes in installation structure
     spot-check all new modules for completeness
     better docs for pack()/unpack()
-    add perlport.pod
+    reorg tutorials vs. reference sections
