From a short list of interesting things (which is far from complete),
things mentioned in Utrecht were SMP support, perhaps some NDA stuff
that might get opensourced, ppp stuff, softupdates stuff,
multi-architecture support.

And then there is of course the extra input from a group of professional
developers, and the merger of a company that can do promotion and
distribution (WC), and a company that can do the beloved "Pay me so you
can yell at me when it breaks".

Sounds great to me.
