+== Work in progress ==
+We have now several more or less related development efforts going on, and the code is also growing because of that - so it seems to make sense to summarize what's been going on recently. In general, all changes were made in response to the collection of feature requests and ideas we have accumulated over time  - specifically, that means that the following roadmap is in the process of being implemented:
+* establish unit testing, and add a few self-tests, so that the script can be more easily tested, updated/reviewed in the future
+* rework the script to more easily support other sources (think gmane)
+* make it much easier to update modified xpath/regex expressions (i.e. provide a UI for that)
+* support persistence for script-specific settings
+* make it easier for people to port/maintain the script by encapsulating platform specifics
+* support asynchronous fetching of postings (AJAX), e.g. to fetch posting titles, attachments etc
+* prepare the groundwork for supporting template-based output formats (think newsletter, changelog, articles)
+* review what's necessary to allow the script to update fgcquote-based quotes automagically
