 Urgent items (before announcing ng.gnunet.org):
-* TESTING (needed for DV, DHT, Topology)
-  - implement library for local testing
-    + consider changing API for peer-group termination to 
-      call continuation when done
-  - implement testcases for library
-    + test basic peer connect
-    + test group start
-* TEST:
-  - topology (needs TESTING)
-  - hostlist (maybe easier with TESTING?)
 * CORE:
-  - soliciting traffic for clients that registered for it is not implemented
-    (in the service, client API supports GNUNET_MESSAGE_TYPE_CORE_SOLICIT_TRAFFIC
-     but never receives any such messages); how to avoid busy-waiting here
-     is a good question (solicit => nothing, when to solicit again???)
+  - update core API to reflect changes to transport API
+    (need to pass distance to clients!)
+  - test currently fails spectacularly
+  - request disconnect not implemented (needs better transport API)
+* topology
+  - (forced) disconnect does not work (also CORE API issue)
+  - needs testing (not sure the current testcase does much...)
+* testing:
+  - timeout_hello_task is not used but should be (so we can fail 
+    properly)
+  - check that 'GNUNET_TRANSPORT_get_hello' is associated with
+    a TIMEOUT task wherever else appropriate (other testcases
+    in particular!)
+* hostlist
+  - test fails (looks like it works, but that's because of a bad
+    connectivity notification; somehow core is unable to send
+    messages successfully via transport)
 * FS (basic anonymous FS only)
   - implement FS service (P2P operations)

 * UTIL:
-  - heap: "remove_node" can hardly be O(1) given the API, but it should be (!)
   - load: need way to determine network load (up/down)
   - trust: need *fast* way to check/update trust in peers
