+Future developments:
+
+ILISP might become part of the standard FSF distribution in the
+future. There are numerous little things that need to be done in that
+direction in order to conform to FSF coding and interface standards
+(e.g. the behavior of C-a is not acceptable by the FSF interface
+standard and numerous doc strings in ILISP need to be rewritten).
+This will happen slowly over the next(s) releases.
