Hi Daniel,

hmm... currently there are mostly mid/long-time-tasks that are most 
required.

the most important would be: gtk+3 bindings (and bindings to anything 
else) could be implemented if rep had some FFI-based (foreign functions 
interface) wrapper to access those functions and create a binding, for 
GNOME/GTK+-related stuff GI (GObject Intropsection) could be an 
alternative (rep-gtk is more relevant than rep-qt or rep-whatever).

this is usually the point there someone states what lisp/scheme XYZ 
already has that kind of wrapper or has bindings readily available 
already ;)

another thing (more easy) I couldn't find the time: merging mmc's 
"Sawfish-MMC" into Sawfish. Latest -mmc was rebased for 1.6, so it 
shouldn't be all-to-hard, but very time-consuming. See: 
https://gitorious.org/~mmaruska/sawfish-mirror/mmaruskas-sawfish

other not-so-important stuff:
- use XCB (or is this already outdated again? but I (still) doubt 
wayland will hit big time) [sawfish]
- better debugging facilities/more robustness [librep]
- sawfish can only use imlib1, but rasterman has brought imlib2 for 
ages [sawfish]

alternatively one could grep for XXX in the source to find 
cludges/possible things to fix.

Regards,
Chris
