Hi,

TODO list for 1.0.0-rc1, random order.

- Adjust Rules.mak MAJOR_VERSION, MINOR_VERSION, SUBLEVEL, EXTRAVERSION
  Make sure that soname remains at .0
- disable !NPTL for arches that have NPTL impls.
  Disable threads for everybody who doesn't have NPTL to force
  psychological strain (one could argue about this).
  Where '+' means ported, 'o' means TODO/needs verification
  o alpha
  o arm
  o avr32
  o bfin
  o cris
  o e1
  o frv
  o h8300
  o hppa
  + i386
  o i960
  o ia64
  o m68k
  o microblaze
  o mips
  o nios
  o nios2
  o powerpc
  o sh
  o sh64
  o sparc
  o v850
  o vax
  + x86_64
  o xtensa
  Arches that pretend to support threads (i.e. NPTL) have to submit
  sensible testresults to be whitelisted (ideally on a regular base,
  automated).
- SUSv4 audit
  This would be the big thing, API-wise, to warrant a 1.0.

I'd aim for 2010-06-30 for a 1.0.0-rc1 (on master), i.e. one month from
now on.

happy hacking,
