For 0.15:

* Refactor nfref into nfref and connection.
* Refactor stats into a generic list.
* Rewrite list to be much simpler, like a cons list.
* "Opaquify" all data types.
* Create constants for all API return values.
* Actually check those return values.
* Finish converting all data type usage into the heap-allocated style,
  instead of the stack-allocated style still used in a lot of the
  client.
* Finish documenting all of include/newts.
* Write test suites for all of libnewts.
* Finalize the 0.x API.
* Fix the existing Python bindings to compile at least given the above
  changes.
* Update all copyrights.
* Change licenses. Either =GPL2 or =GPL3.

For 0.16:

* Refactor the gigantic switch statements in each mode of the notes
  client to instead be a key dispatch map into functions with a standard
  signature.
* Get rid of which.[ch] in favor of execp.

For 1.0 or earlier:

* User-modifyable keybindings.
* .newtsrc support.
* Highlight-scrolling nf index. (New client?)
* NF menu. (New client?)
* Code cleanup, things like "return (...);"
* Audit system calls.

For 1.0:

* Client-server protocol.
* Server implementation.
* Kill all FIXMEs.

Sometime/maybe:

* Switch to git for SCM.
* Write a better pager. This should be easier now.
* Support glib for data types like lists.
* Rewrite the little tools like mknf in a scripting language.
* More bindings!
* Implement GNU readline support.
* A gdbm backend.
* I've got a backlog of feature requests from =newts.devel on the development
  server that I should really handle at some point.
* Do the modern client. This would actually be pretty easy if I decided how I
  wanted it to look and all.
* Rewrite in Lisp. :)
