Akim proposed a patch for the TODO in autoconf-patches (in "TOTO
autoconf" [sic]), including:
+** Pentateuch
+Heck, there is nothing after `Deuteronomy'!  We're stuck, but we
+_must_ update the `history' section.  Can't go to `New testament', we
+might hurt feelings?  In addition, it means that the Messiah has come,
+which might be slightly presumptuous :).  Still, someone fluent in
+English should write it.

I would switch over to the Wisdom Books next: Job, Psalms, Proverbs,
Ecclesiastes, The Song of Songs, Wisdom, and Sirach (one of the Apocrypha,
I believe, so we can have happy religious wars over it).  My justification
is that they have the most interesting-sounding names after the
Pentateuch, although calling the next section "Job" does have a somewhat
ominous ring to it.  =)

Another alternative would be the "Gospel According to Akim," etcetera.  =)

My inclination is to think that the list of things "required" for 2.15 is
a little overly ambitious.  If some minor issue is unchanged from 2.13,
e.g. not enough environment variables being documented, I don't see why it
should hold up the release considering the number of improvements that
have been made.  You can always fix those things in the next release.  I
would think that the main concern should be that no new problems have been
added.

Steven
