--- NEW FILE: ROADMAP ---
Here are some quick notes as far as a cairo roadmap goes.

See also the TODO file for a different view, (less organized, but
often in more detail, particularly for the API Shakeup work in
progress).

cairo 1.0 release requirements
==============================

Implementation work
-------------------
I1. Fix clipping to be sane
	Dificulty: moderate
	Status: cworth has started looking at this

I2. Real PostScript/PDF fallbacks (cairo_meta_surface_t)
	Difficulty: hard
	Status: otaylor has drafted a plan or two on the list

API Issues (more detail in TOO
------------------------------

A1. Add cairo_paint
	Difficulty: moderate or moderate to minor after [I1]
	Status: cworth has a patch nearly complete

A2. Add cairo_mask
	Difficulty: moderate
	Status: cworth sent API proposal to the list

A3. Make set_source consistent
	Difficulty: easy, but needs [A2] to avoid losing functionality
	Status: cworth has patch basically complete

A5. Add cairo_begin/end/get_group
	Difficulty: easy to hard (depending on how sophisticated an
	            implementation is acceptable, and whether the
		    cairo_meta_surface_t mentioned in [I2] is done)
	Status: cworth sent API proposal to the list
	        (still some unresolved API issues)

A6. Add cairo_clip/fill/stroke_preserve
	Difficulty: easy
	Status: cworth has patch basically complete

A7. Just eliminate a bunch of functions:

	cairo_set_target_*
	cairo_copy
	cairo_surface_set_repeat/matrix/filter
	cairo_show_surface (depends on [A1])

	Difficulty: trivial
	Status: just waiting for a less inconvient time to break
		compatibility

A8. cairo_surface_mark_dirty
	Difficulty: trivial to add API, moderate to actually optimize
		    based on it
	Status: cworth has sent API proposal to list

Performance work
----------------
P1. Make pixel-aligned rectangle compositing fast
	Difficulty: moderate to easy
	Status: none

P2. Generate better trapezoids to go easier on the rasterizer
	Difficulty: moderate to hard
	Status: cworth drafted a plan to the list
