I've started a new TODO list. Remind me of anything else that needs doing; people with CVS access, feel free to add anything you need for your area of responsibility whatever that may be...
String subsystem ---------------- grep docs/strings.pod for unimplemented functions and implement them Implement transcoding Automate string vtable generation Fill in vtables for non-ASCII encodings: UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32, etc. Find a decent way of including Unicode properties tables. (Not for the feint of heart.) Vtables ------- Fix vtable key support for hashes and arrays PythonInteger/String/Object? JIT --- More instructions needed! Configure system ---------------- Long term, should be replaced with a bootstrapping miniparrot system. IO -- Regular expression engine ------------------------- Implement case folding More speed! Interpreter ----------- -- Microsoft - We put the "backwards" into backwards compatibility.
