+This doc lists what is left to do before importlib can become the
+"One True Import".  The items in the list must be done in order!
+
+- 2.6-specific
+    * Be backwards-compatible.
+        + All tests must pass!
+            - importlib tests.
+            - 2.6 stdlib tests using importlib (see regrtest.sh).
+    * Rewrite zipimport.
+    * Put into 2.6 stdlib.
+- Py3K-specific
+    * Port to Py3K.
+        + Consider it a fork of code as semantics can change compared to 2.6 code.
+    * Bootstrap in as default import implementation.
+    * Fix C API to call importlib.
+    * Remove C implementation.
+    * Tune performance.
