We had these in the "Annual Report" under "Future Activities
but the questions arise on how we set priorities, especially since every one is a volunteer.

The "Issue" here is: make sure these are all in Issues, citing this one

  • Testing: There are extensive conformance tests that we haven’t validated. Including regression testing. (Testing and test suites  #571 )
  • Fonts: clean up the fonts we have and import modern Unicode fonts (see issues labeled 'font'
  • ANSI Common Lisp: Current Lisp systems do not support the development and debugging capabilities of Medley. With full ANSI support, it would be possible to develop Common Lisp applications in Medley and deploy them on SBCL, ECL, or another fast Common Lisp implementation. (Want ANSI Common Lisp conformance #572 )
  • Testing other Lisp applications, collected over the years, for inclusion in an application repository (not sure if this is LispUsers or some other collection)
  • Network: Medley has full protocol stacks, in Lisp, for three families of network protocols: PUP, XNS, and TCP/IP. Can we demonstrate? (set up and test Interlisp networking tools #573)
  • Video demos of significant Medley Interlisp features (Want short demos of interesting Interlisp features #4)
  • Write up project history as a use case in software preservation
  • Git/Github and File package integration (A Lisp-based GitHub Desktop).

These are all either well-underway or otherwise covered, so I'm just going to close this issue about the 2021 Annual Report.
