+Things that still need to be done (2001/02/22) :
+================================================
+
+- Vladimir Volovich suggested to have a babel option mechanism.
+  This may be implemented using something like:
+  \languageoption[<option>,<option>,...]{<language>}
+  (See PR 2814)
+
+- The language attribute mechanism is not completely mature yet. It is
+  currently not possible to switch attibutes on and off in the middle
+  of a document. This restriction might be lifted in a future release.
+
+- I started work on support for hyphenation patterns depending on 
+  the encoding. So far this only works when loading the pattern file.
+  The encoding information isn't then subsequently stored as an
+  attribute for that hyphenation register.
+
+- An interface is  needed to be able to change the definition of
+  things like \figurename and keep the change over language
+  switches. (PR3291) 
+
+- Jean-François Mertens <jfm@core.ucl.ac.be> has developped a fully
+  expandable way of `sanitizing' active characters. It needs thorough
+  testing by a larger number of users before it could be included in
+  the ditribution.
+
+- A suggestion has been made by Ole Laursen <olau@hardworking.dk> to
+  make the comma active to be used as decimal delimiter instead of the
+  dot. This could be provided as an option as more European languages
+  need the comma for that purpose.
+
+- I have a contribution wich provides support for typesetting the
+  Serbian language in the Cyrillic alphabet; this is not yet
+  integrated. 
+
+- I have a contribution with support for the Thai language which also
+  needs attntion to integrate it with babel
