 	[ ] API Sanity Audit.
 	[ ] Comment/Docs Audit.
 	[.] Implement API testing using doctest.
-	[ ] Alter 'export' handling, to support exporting a var without
-	    defining the variable.
-		format:
-		export [VAR[=value] ...]
-	[ ] Possibility: alternate data formats for metadata (i.e. arrays).
-		i.e. THIS[1] = "that"
-		     THIS["heh"] = "that"
-	[ ] More complex variable setting/conditionals
-		Options:
-		[ ] Add support for 'anonymous' OE functions in .oe{,class} files.
-		    These functions are to be executed immediately at parse time,
-		    thereby giving one the ability to exert more control over the set
-		    of variables.
-		[ ] if/elseif/else/endif blocks for conditional variable setting
-	[ ] Split oemake's knowledge of AVAILABLE OEFILES from its
-	    knowledge of which packages are to be built.
-		[ ] Define structure and data exchange format(s) for
-		    upstream OE metadata repositories.
-		    Possibly follow an 'apt-get' style.  Cache the
-		    metadata locally, with a command to update.
-	[ ] Make Fetch use md5 hashing to indicate per-file download success.
-	    Or in the case of downloaded directories (cvs/svn/bk), simply a 
-	    success stamp on a per file basis.
-	[ ] Add "noinherit", as a means of removing an item from the
-	    list of classes to inherit.
-	[ ] Need a way to specify that you cannot build a given .oe,
-	    from the .oe.  Along the lines of portage's ability for
-	    an ebuild to specify that it isnt buildable for a given
-	    architecture or set of architectures.
-	[ ] Write helper functions ala ebuild's dobin/dodoc/etc and debian's dh_*.
-		[ ] Note, if we do this using actual commands within the .oe file
-		    as opposed to shell helpers, the buildsystem is then aware
-		    of what files are libs, what are includes, etc, and we could
-		    then do a sane automatic population of staging based on that
-		    information.
