-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)
+# Compatibility warnings to add:
 
-     - CatalystX-CRUD and CatalystX-CRUD-ModelAdapter-DBIC
-       fail tests against 5.80 (karpet)
+  - $self->config should warn as config should only ever be called as a
+    class method (TESTS).
 
-     - Catalyst-Plugin-Authorization-ACL fails as 
-       Catalyst::Dispatcher::_do_forward does not fix arguments if you throw
-       an exception. Needs a test case (Caelum)
-     
-     - Waiting on new releases:
-       - Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication - 0.100092
-       - Catalyst::Action::RenderView    - 0.08
-       - Catalyst::Plugin::DebugCookie'    - 0.999002
+# Proposed functionality / feature additions:
 
-Cleanups:
+## Log setup needs to be less lame
 
-  - 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)
+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.
 
-Documentation:
+Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a
+subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed.
 
-   - Manual / Tutorial updates
+See also: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Dispatch and
+http://github.com/willert/catalyst-plugin-log4perl-simple/tree
 
-       - extends in components with attributes must be inside a BEGIN block.
+## 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)
 
-       - How to write Moosified Catalyst components.
+## throw away the restarter and allow using the restarters Plack provides
 
-   - Catalyst/Upgrading.pod
+## remove per-request state from the engine instance
 
-Reported bugs:
+## be smarter about how we use PSGI - not every response needs to be delayed
+    and streaming
 
-   - 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.
+  * 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.
 
-Tests:
+#  PSGI
 
-  - Moosified test application?
+##  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?
+
+  * 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)
