General
Where are we now and where do we go?
CRUX
- What features (if any) do we want to add to future pkgutils?
- Support distribution of binary packages?
- What needs to be done to better support upgrades?
- installer: possible extensions
- Ports to new architectures (PPC, X86_64; SPARC?, MIPS?)
  - How to integrate/syncronize/support them
  - Subprojects we'd like to start ourselves
  - Tools to facilitate this (SVK, Monotone, DCVS, mppm)
CLC
- Better integration between CRUX and CLC?
- Review/improve CLC guidelines/documents
  - Common headers for CRUX/CLC Pkgfiles?
  - Common bugtracking system?
  - Third party package management (prt-get, pkgsync, sports, pkg-get)
    - where are we heading / what makes sense
    - where should we cooperate
Contributions
- How can we improve the third party ports situation?
- How can we canalize user contribution (avoiding frustration of people who want to help)
- Define subprojects (ports, doc/web, installer, scripts) to allow contributions beyond ports
General extensions
- Binary packages
  - General considerations; problems and challenges
  - Extended install ISOs with ports from contrib
  - Regularly updated ISOs inbetween releases
