-midipix alpha release: the final stretch
-========================================
-
-my.own.tasks@midipix.org
-------------------------
-
-* ofd tables: additional bucket allocation as needed.
-* `ls -R //c`: check for the cause of individual failures.
-  (might be related to the above ofd bucket allocation).
-* integrate clone and the initial ldso implementation.
-* integrate the signal queue, check signal implementation for
-  semantic completion, especially in the context of multi-threaded
-  applications.
-* implement /dev/random and /dev/urandom, as well as other virtual
-  folders needed by core applications.
-* implement the scheduler functions.
-* implement (possibly as stubs) missing system calls, fix existing
-  system calls as needed by the core applications.
-* toolchain: provided the few interfaces missing for C++ support.
-* porting of mintty.
-
-
-porting and other release-related tasks
----------------------------------------
-
-* testing of ncurses.
-* testing of bash and dash when built with ncurses.
-* testing of all of the coreutils, seeing which ones fail due to
-  a missing virtual file or folder, which ones fail due to a missing
-  system call (crash), and which ones fail due to an incomplete or
-  incorrect system call.
-* porting of gdb.
