At present we have two priorities.

(1) Get the wiki stablised, running, and the content backed up
so we can use it to create content without fear work will be lost.

(2) Get the Windows build fully woking, including running
all the tools, including the webserver and wiki.

We need both these things to attract more users and developers.
Without more people the project will never get off the ground.

Windows developers are typically a lot less conservative than
Unix devs.

There are also two more categories of developers: networking
and web developers (two quite distinct groups but with 
interests on the opposite side of the same coin), and mobile
devs (phones, etc).

We should be able to grab the networking people since Felix
has a good emphasis on networking including platform
independent async I/O. And we're working on the web
services stuff right now.

That leaves the mobile devs out in the cold at the moment.
That's currently the fastest growing market.  With its cross
compilation facilities Felix should be well suited to that
market, but there will be more work to do to get that
feature working smoothly.

BTW: although Felix was originally targeted at the C++ crowd
I think that market is hopeless. More likely to convince Linus
to use Felix than a C++ programmer ;(
