+This file contains an unsorted list of tasks to be done on the
+MetaPost manual. Feel free to add new, move or remove finished
+items.
+
+Where to put new items?
+-----------------------
+Section 'For Release' contains items that we want to be finished
+before the next release. Even minor issues can and should be
+added here.
+
+Items in section 'Mid Term Issues' have no dead-line, but should
+be small enough to be relatively quickly done.
+
+Items in section 'Long Term Issues' are less actively worked on.
+The reason they are less actively worked on is not lack of
+importance, but lack of developer resources. Nevertheless, they
+are on the agenda. Contributions are welcome!
+
+How to pick items?
+------------------
+You can indicate interest or active work on an item by putting your
+initials in parenthese in front of that item and checking the
+modified TODO file into the repository. That way, anybody who is
+subscribed to the metapost-commits list is notified. Additionally,
+it is wise to communicate that you're working on an issue (you
+didn't remember adding yourself) on the mp-implementors list or
+alternatively the metapost list.
+
+
