-cairo 1.0 release requirements
-==============================
-Implementation work
--------------------
-✓I1. Fix clipping to be sane
-	Status: Done (in cairo 0.9.0).
+cairo 1.0.2 required fixes (Schedule unknown)
+=============================================
+[Need to look through bugzilla, particularly at new bugs filed since
+the 1.0.0 release]
 
-✓I2. Real PostScript/PDF fallbacks (cairo_meta_surface_t)
-	Status: Done (to some extent) (in cairo 0.5.2)
+cairo 1.2.0 desired features (Scheduled for 2005-11-01)
+=======================================================
+ A. PS backend
+    ----------
+     1. Mark PS backend as supported:
 
-		We do have PDF output now, and "real" PostScript
-		output on a per-page basis when the capabilities of
-		the PostScript imaging model aren't exceeded. There
-		are a few parts of these backend that aren't complete,
-		but that will have to wait for post-1.0 I'm afraid.
+	 a. Incorporate into test suite
 
-✓I3. Add support for sub-pixel (ARGB) rendering of text.
-	Status: Done (in cairo 0.6.0).
+	 b. Correct output for the entire test suite
 
-✓I4. Fix the cache lock deadlocking problems.
-	Status: Done (in cairo 0.9.2)
+     2. Image fallbacks at finer-than-whole-page granularity
 
-✓I6. Fix all expected failures (XFAIL) in the test suite. Either
-     there's a bug that needs to be fixed, or there are illegitimate
-     tests that should be removed.
-	Status: Done. 5 XFAIL test remain, but 4 of those have results
-	that are acceptable. The only with with completely broken
-	output (a8-mask) only happens with A8 image surface masks with
-	weird padding, (so it is easy to avoid).
+ B. PDF backend
+    -----------
+     1. Mark PDF backend as supported
 
-API additions (more detail in TODO file)
-----------------------------------------
-✓A7. cairo_surface_mark_dirty and cairo_surface_flush
-	Status: Done (in cairo 0.9.0).
+	 a. Incorporate into test suite
 
-✓A12. cairo_xlib_surface_set_drawable
-	Status: Done (in cairo 0.6.0).
+	 b. Correct output for the entire test suite (use image
+	    fallbacks as necessary, meta-surface?):
 
-Performance work
-----------------
-✓ Lots of performance work was done, such as the MMX-ification of
-  pixman, the addition of cairo-benchmarks, and several 2x improvements
-  for tests within cairo-benchamarks. Many thanks to Billy Biggs!
+	      a. Gradients with more than two stops
 
-Things that have been dropped from the 1.0 roadmap
-==================================================
- A3. Add cairo_begin/end/get_group
-	Difficulty: easy to hard (depending on how sophisticated an
-	            implementation is acceptable, and whether the
-		    cairo_meta_surface_t mentioned in [I2] is done)
+	      b. All of the cairo_operator_t modes
+
+	      c. Gradients with transparency
+
+	      d. Repeating surface patterns
+
+	      e. cairo_mask
+
+ C. Win32 backend
+    -------------
+     1. Incorporate into test suite
+
+     2. Correct output for the entire suite
+
+ D. Bug fixes
+    ---------
+     1. Fix dashed splines.
+
+     2. Fix some expected failures (XFAIL) in the test suite
+
+	 a. a8-mask
+
+	 b. clip-all
+
+	 c. filter-nearest-offset
+
+	 d. pixman-rotate
+
+ E. API Additions
+    -------------
+     1. cairo_begin/end/get_group
 	Status: cworth has a posted a preliminary patch, and keithp,
 		krh, and otaylor answered all the tough questions it
 		raised. There's not much work left to finish this one.
 
- I5. Finish the workaround for Render's overlapping source/dest bug
-	(Copy the source as needed)
+ F. Performance improvements
+    ------------------------
+     1. Cull and trim trapezoids outside clip region bounds
 
-	The most important part of this was to workaround when doing a
-	straight copy, (eg. for scrolling), and that much is done. The
-	remaining case is things like overlapping OVER of a surface
-	with itself, which doesn't seem useful enough to be a priority
-	at this point.
+     2. Generate more large pixel-aligned, rectangular trapezoids
 
- I7. Fine-grained PostScript fallbacks (cairo_meta_surface_t)
-	Difficulty: Moderate to hard
-	Status: cairo_meta_surface provides most of the
-		mechanics. From here on out its mostly a matter of
-		refining the fallbacks to work on a finer-grained
-		basis than the current all-or-nothing-per-page
-		approach.
+    ✓3. Speed up glyph measurement (cache rewrite)
 
- I8. Finish implementing the PDF/PostScript backends:
-	Difficulty: Moderate to hard
-	Status: Most everything is there, but there are few things in
-		cairo that these backends don't yet implement:
+ G. SVG backend
+    -----------
+     1. Add experimental SVG backend
 
-		* Gradients with more than two stops
+cairo 1.4.0 desired features (Schedule unknown)
+===============================================
+ A. Quartz backend (maintainer needed!)
+    -----------------------------------
+     1. Mark Quartz backend as supported:
 
-		* All of the cairo_operator_t modes
+	 a. Incorporate into test suite
 
-		* Gradient with transparency
+	 b. Correct output for the entire suite
 
-		* Repeating surface patterns
+ B. SVG backend
+    -----------
+     1. Mark SVG backend as supported
 
-		* cairo_mask
+	 a. Incorporate into test suite
 
-		Some of these could be handled by fallbacks, either as
-		a stop-gap measuer, or permanently. But that will also
-		depend on finishing up [I7].
+	 b. Correct output for the entire suite
 
- P2. Generate better trapezoids to go easier on the rasterizer
-	Difficulty: moderate to hard
-	Status: cworth drafted a plan to the list. vektor is looking
-		at this, (or other similarly useful performance
-		optimizations)
+ B. Performance improvements
+    ------------------------
+     1. New tessellator (more robust and faster)
 
- P3. Glyph measurement needs to be sped up.
-	Status: keithp and cworth planned this all out. keithp is
-		working on this.
+ C. Bug fixes
+    ---------
+     1. Fix all expected failures (XFAIL) in the test suite
+
+	 a. self-intersecting
+		AKA. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3752
+		Fix depends on [A1].
