+SHOWSTOPPERS:
+
+KNOWN BUGS:
+(none serious.
+See <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=104593&group_id=4593&func=browse>.)
+
+PENDING PATCHES (available but need work):
+* Gilles's configuration parsing patches need testing before committing.
+* Memory improvements to htmerge. (Backed out b/c htword API changed.)
+* Mifluz merge. (Is this still pending??)
+
+NEEDED FEATURES:
+* Quim's new htsearch/qtest query parser framework.
+* File/Database locking. PR#405764.
+
+TESTING:
+* httools programs:
+ (htload a test file, check a few characteristics, htdump and compare)
+* Tests for new config file parser
+* Duplicate document detection while indexing
+* Major revisions to ExternalParser.cc, including fork/exec instead of popen,
+ argument handling for parser/converter, allowing binary output from an
+ external converter.
+* ExternalTransport needs testing of changes similar to ExternalParser.
+
+DOCUMENTATION:
+* List of supported platforms/compilers is ancient. (PR#405279)
+* Document all of htsearch's mappings of input parameters to config attributes
+ to template variables. (Relates to PR#405278.)
+ Should we make sure these config attributes are all documented in
+ defaults.cc, even if they're only set by input parameters and never
+ in the config file?
+* Split attrs.html into categories for faster loading.
+* Turn defaults.cc into an XML file for generating documentation and
+ defaults.cc.
+* require.html is not updated to list new features and disk space
+ requirements of 3.2.x (e.g. regex matching, database compression.)
+ PRs# 405280 #405281.
+* Htfuzzy could use more documentation on what each fuzzy algorithm
+ does. PR#405714.
+* Document the list of all installed files and default
+ locations. PR#405715.
+
+OTHER ISSUES:
+* Can htsearch actually search while an index is being created?
+* The code needs a security audit, esp. htsearch. PR#405765.
