Hola,

Since I think we're getting pretty close to a 1.1.2 release (and John is 
getting antsy to implement new things it seems :)), I think it might be 
a good idea to start planning what we want in the next, and future 
releases. Here's some of my ideas. What do you guys think?

bug fixes:
1.1.3: cache the binding of every sub-expression and type to make lookup 
linear


language:
1.2: olabl-like labels/keywords
1.3: classes
1.3: multimethods
2.0: type classes
2.0: ocaml-like module interfaces for info hiding
2.0: metaprogramming

some way to rebind vals (this would be useful, but skaller already said 
it's not doable. Maybe we can figure out a reduced form to cover some of 
the use cases)


compiler:
1.1.3: detecting missing patterns when matching
1.1.3: __LINENO__, __FILE__ macros
2.0: writing a llvm backend
2.0: interpreter
2.0: direct felix debugging
2.0: partial recompilation


libraries:
1.1.3: arg parsing library
1.1.3: unit testing library
1.2: monad library
1.3: fixing lua bindings


executables:
1.1.3: rewrite flx in felix
1.2: standardize interface for executables


misc:
migrate to subversion or equivalent
migrate the compile farm scripts into the repository
