+
+<h2><a name="transition-3.0"></a>Complete the transition to 3.0: libkpathsea4</h2>
+
+<p>Most known bugs have been fixed meanwhile, but there is one big
+thing missing: The library transition. To keep it as smooth as
+possible, we should</p>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>Wait until tetex-bin is in etch</li>
+ <li><p>Identify packages that link against libkpathsea3</p>
+ <p><code>apt-rdepends -r libkpathsea3 | grep -v Reverse</code></p>
+ </li>
+ <li>Ask the responsible maintainers to try building against
+ libkpathsea4, setting <code>Build-Depends: libkpathsea4-dev |
+ libkpathsea-dev</code></li>
+ <li>After a while, start submitting bugs and patches</li>
+ <li>Only <code>Provide: libkpathsea-dev</code> when the number of
+ packages that still link against libkpathsea3 is sufficiently small,
+ and bugs for all of them have been filed; raise these bugs'
+ severity.</li>
+</ol>
+
+<h2><a name="nonfreedoc"></a>Deal with non-free documentation</h2>
+
+<p> This requires identification of problematic documents (GFDL, no
+source, CC licenses, etc.), contact and discussion with the authors,
+and most probably the creation of a tetex-nonfree package (again...)</p>
+
+<h2><a name="license"></a>Completely clean up license situation</h2>
+
+<p>We should really address <a
+href="http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=218105"
+>#218105</a> and <a
+href="http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=258972"
+>#258972</a> at least partially.</p>
+
+<h2><a name="splitting">New splitting scheme</a></h2>
+
+<p>The state of the discussion about this has been described in <a
+href="splitting.html" >A new splitting scheme for the teTeX packages</a>, now it's time for the actual coding.
+There's already a branch at <a href="http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-tetex/tetex-base/branches/new-splitting/?rev=0&sc=0" >http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-tetex/tetex-base/branches/new-splitting/</a>.</p>
+
+<h1><a name="texlive"></a>texlive</h1>
+
+<p>I really hope TeXLive will be in etch. To achieve this, I
+recommend that the packages only stay in experimental until they have
+been built on all release architectures, and the upgrading and
+switching has been tested thoroughly with different combinations of
+starting packages.</p>
+
+<h1><a name="policy">Enforce the TeX Policy in add-on packages</a></h1>
+
+<p>File placement is the most important point here: Bugs are both easy
+to identify, and have a bad impact.</p>
