+
+Library improvements
+====================
+
+ * Implement a faster lookup-table-based rasterizer
+
+ * Implement show_text_glyph() operation, with PDF implementation described in [[http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cairo/2007-September/011427.html|this mail]]
+
+ * A significant improvement to pixman compositing code
+
+ * Merge xlib and xcb backend similarly to what was done recently to PDF and PS
+
+ * Finish user-font API described in several mailing list threads:
+ [[1](http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cairo/2007-February/009539.html)]
+ [[2](http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cairo/2006-May/006893.html)]
+ [[3](http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cairo/2006-May/006888.html)]
+
+ * Implement cairo_stroke_to_path()
+
+
+ * Improve software polygon compositing by doing it in a
+ single scanline pass rather than tessellating, rasterizing, then
+ compositing the entire polygon.
+
+ * Fix cairo so that a degenerate matrix draws nothing rather than
+ triggering an error state. That is: `cairo_scale (cr, 0, 0);` should
+ not cause an error, (though maybe it shouldn't actually draw
+ _nothing_ for painting an infinite source pattern---compute the
+ average color for a surface-based source pattern perhaps?).
+
+Website improvements
+====================
+ * Integrate subset of [old cairo-demo
+ programs](http://webcvs.cairographics.org/cairo-demo/) into the
+ wiki proper
+
+ * Integrate existing [reference manual](/manual) into the wiki proper
