-Known Bugs:
+# Known Bugs:
 
-   - Bug ->go or ->visit causes actions which have Args or CaptureArgs caled
+   - Bug ->go or ->visit causes actions which have Args or CaptureArgs called
      twice when called via ->go or ->visit.
 
      Test app: http://github.com/bobtfish/catalyst-app-bug-go_chain/tree/master
 
+# Compatibility warnings to add:
 
-   - Certain errors in your application to do with using other code which does
-     not exist can cause an 'Unknown error' issue.
+  - $self->config should warn as config should only ever be called as a
+    class method (TESTS).
 
-     This is now fixed, by moving back to B::Hooks::EndOfScope, but this (used
-     to) cause issues with the following modules:
+# Proposed functionality / feature additions:
 
-     - Catalyst-Plugin-Session-State-Cookie
-     - Catalyst-Plugin-Session-Store-FastMmap
-     - Catalyst-Plugin-Session-PerUser
-     - Catalyst-Plugin-Session-Store-File
-     - Catalyst-Authentication-Credential-HTTP
-     - Catalyst-Plugin-SmartURI
+## Log setup needs to be less lame
 
-     according to comments in r8991. Retest these before shipping anything..
+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.
 
-   - -restarter.t will fail if you don't have ::StashChange installed, and
-      also quite often at other times.
+Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a
+subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed.
 
+See also: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Dispatch and

-   - Catalyst::Test - bugs with Moosification (Khisanth/kane)
+## Capture arguments that the plack engine component was run with somewhere,
+    to more easily support custom args from scripts (e.g. Gitalist's
+    --git_dir)
 
-   - Attribute called 'actions' in controllers - needs to be renamed to _actions.
+## throw away the restarter and allow using the restarters Plack provides
 
-   - before finalize causes you to miserably fail to call plugins finalize
-     method (dmaki)
+## remove per-request state from the engine instance
 
-Compatibility warnings to add:
+## be smarter about how we use PSGI - not every response needs to be delayed
+    and streaming
 
-   - $self->config should warn as config should only ever be called as a
-     class method.
+#  The horrible hack for plugin setup - replacing it:
 
-Proposed functionality / feature additions:
+ * Have a look at the Devel::REPL BEFORE_PLUGIN stuff
+   I wonder if what we need is that combined with plugins-as-roles
 
-    - Log setup needs to be less lame, 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.
+  * Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Prefork no longer works since it requires
+    Catalyst::Engine::CGI which no longer is in the cataplack distribution.
+    Investigation shows moving CE:CGI to CE:HTTP:Prefork allows tests to pass.
 
-      Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a
-      subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed.

+##  To do at release time
 
+  - Release psgi branch of Catalyst-Devel
+  - Release new Task::Catalyst
+  - Release 5.9 branch of Catalyst-Manual
+  - Release Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Prefork with deprecation notice
+    (and maybe compat?)
 
+##  Blockers
+
+  * Better docs for stopping using Engine::HTTP::Prefork and
+    starting using Starman, maybe?
+
+  * Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst new release
+
+  * Test nginx middleware to determine if it is needed with:
+
+    root app - with use_request_uri_for_path
+    root app - without use_request_uri_for_path
+    non-root app - with use_request_uri_for_path
+    non-root app - without use_request_uri_for_path
+
+    If it isn't needed, remove. If it is needed, split it out into it's own
+    file and document why it's needed.
+
+  * I've noticed a small difference with Catalyst::Test. The latest stable
+    version include two headers, 'host' and 'https'. They are missing from
+    this version - Pedro Melo on list
+    ^^ Cannot replicate this? Mailed back to ask for tests..
+
+# App / ctx split:
+
+  NOTE - these are notes that t0m thought up after doing back compat for
+         catalyst_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 :)
+
+  - 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)
