+# 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).
 
-     Test app: http://github.com/bobtfish/catalyst-app-bug-unknown-error/tree/master
-     < rafl> 21:13:03 < vincent> hah, Class::MOP::Method::Generated->_eval_closure
-     < rafl> 21:13:40 < vincent> right, shove a local $@ in there
-     < rafl> i can do that and add tests in an hour or two
+# Proposed functionality / feature additions:
 
+## Log setup needs to be less lame
 
-   - -restarter.t will fail if you don't have ::StashChange installed, and
-      also quite often at other times.
+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.
 
+Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a
+subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed.

+##  PSGI
 
+###  Blockers
+
+  * Fix nginx middlewares so that they are generic, or can somehow
+    be used by people with their own .psgi files
+  * Fix a sane / nicer way to do custom engines.
+
+#### Script survey
+
+###  Nice to have
+
+  * 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)
+  * throw away the restarter and allow using the restarters Plack provides
+  * remove per-request state from the engine instance
+  * be smarter about how we use PSGI - not every response needs to be delayed
+    and streaming
+
+##  The horrible hack for plugin setup - replacing it:
+
+ * Have a look at the Devel::REPL BEFORE_PLUGIN stuff
+   I wonder if what we need is that combined with plugins-as-roles
+
+## 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)
