#+TITLE: TODO List
Hey Emacs, this is -*- org -*- mode!
* IMPORTANT!

There was a nine year gap (2009 to 2018) between edits of this file,
so it is likely that much of the old information in it is wrong or
no longer applicable.
Bugs, feature requests and other development related work will be
tracked through the [[https://dev.gnupg.org/][dev.gnupg.org]] site.

Clean up the current TODO list. Include properties as relevant (so
if someone does make a PDF or HTML version the TOC will work).
Also check ans see if some of these ancient things can be removed
(e.g. do we really need to fix things that were broken in GPG
1.3.x? I'm thinking not so much).
