-Back-compat investigation:
+# Known Bugs:
 
-  - Get engines tested:
-    - Catalyst-Engine-Zeus
-    - Catalyst-Engine-XMPP2
-    - Catalyst-Engine-HTTPEngine
-    - Catalyst-Engine-HTTP-Prefork
-    - Catalyst-Engine-Wx
+   - Bug ->go or ->visit causes actions which have Args or CaptureArgs called
+     twice when called via ->go or ->visit.
 
-Known issues:
+     Test app: http://github.com/bobtfish/catalyst-app-bug-go_chain/tree/master
 
-     - Catalyst-Log-Log4perl Deep recursion on subroutine "MockApp::setup" due
-       to Adopt::NEXT not remembering which setup methods were already called
-       and which not, like NEXT does. Log::Log4perl needs to be fixed and the
-       problem should be described in Upgrading.pod. (rafl)
+   - Bricas' Exception blog post
 
-     - CatalystX-CRUD and CatalystX-CRUD-ModelAdapter-DBIC
-       fail tests against 5.80 (karpet)
+     http://bricas.vox.com/library/post/catalyst-exceptionclass.html
 
-     - Catalyst-Plugin-Authorization-ACL fails as 
-       Catalyst::Dispatcher::_do_forward does not fix arguments if you throw
-       an exception. Needs a test case (Caelum)
-     
-     - Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication new release.
+     Broken by recent exception refactoring
 
-Cleanups:
+# Compatibility warnings to add:
 
-  - Find whatever in the test suite craps a file called GLOB(0xfoo) onto my 
-    disk and fix it. (Believed to be in the optional TEST_HTTP tests?) (t0m)
+  - $self->config should warn as config should only ever be called as a
+    class method.
 
-Documentation:
+# Proposed functionality / feature additions:
 
-   - Manual / Tutorial updates
+## Log setup needs to be less lame
 
-       - extends in components with attributes must be inside a BEGIN block.
+So Catalyst::Plugin::Log::* can die
+in a fire. Having $c->log_class would be a good start. kane volunteered
+to do some of this.
 
-       - How to write Moosified Catalyst components.
+Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a
+subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed.

-Reported bugs:
+# REFACTORING
 
-   - Issues with TWMC not being loaded when it used to be in 5.70 
-     (Bill Moseley)
+##  The horrible hack for plugin setup - replacing it:
 
-Profiling:
+ * Have a look at the Devel::REPL BEFORE_PLUGIN stuff
+   I wonder if what we need is that combined with plugins-as-roles
 
-  - vs 5.70 and optimisation as needed.
+## App / ctx split:
 
-Tests:
+  NOTE - these are notes that t0m thought up after doing back compat for
+         _component_class, may be inaccurate, wrong or missing things
+         bug mst (at least) to correct before trying more than the first 2
+         steps. Please knock yourself out on the first two however :)
 
-  - Moosified test application?
+  - Eliminate actions in MyApp from the main test suite
+  - Uncomment warning in C::C::register_action_methods, add tests it works
+    by mocking out the logging..
+  - Remove MyApp @ISA controller (ask metaclass if it has attributes, and if
+                                  so you need back compat :/)
+  - Make Catalyst::Context, move the per request stuff in there, handles from
+    main app class to delegate
+  - Make an instance of the app class which is a global variable
+  - Make new instance of the context class, not the app class per-request
+  - Remove the components as class data, move to instance data on the app
+    class (you probably have to do this for _all_ the class data, good luck!)
+  - Make it possible for users to spin up different instances of the app class
+    (with different config etc each)
+  - Profit! (Things like changing the complete app config per vhost, i.e.
+    writing a config loader / app class role which dispatches per vhost to
+    differently configured apps is piss easy)
