+# List of problems with XEmacs. If anyone wants to work on these, please
+# mail me and I'll update the table below.
+
+# Core NT issues
+    1. Subprocess support is completely broken. 
+    2. Networking support is completely broken. This is due to the fact that
+       the model relies on the subprocess support also working. 
+    4. No binary release. We know a binary release would be A Good Thing.
+       However we want to make things stable before producing one so we don't
+       have to field too many problems. Sorry. 
+    5. Support for dired is perhaps not quite there. We need to port ls-lisp.el
+       from FSF Emacs. 
+    6. Currently the backup files do not get the same permissions as the file
+       being edited. August Hill is looking at this one. 
+    7. Verify that CRLF issues are dealt with correctly. Marc Paquette is
+       looking at this. 
+    8. Use the registry to store the root directory(ies) of lisp packages; that
+       is the path name, not the elisp files.
+
+# X issues
+    1. Redrawing on my (davidh) system seems fairly broken - I don't know if
+       this is the XEmacs redraw functionality, my X server or just something
+       strange with X under NT. Has anyone else experiences with this ?
+
+# Native GUI issues
+    0. The entire event model.
+    1. Calling mouse_[enter|leave]_frame_hook
+    2. Can't change bold, italic or bold-italic face fonts
+    3. Bogus delay when setting default- or initial-frame-plist
+    4. Short timeouts don't seem to be very accurate
+    5. Scrollbar dragging.  Redisplay isn't called while dragging.
+       Also can't retrieve 32 bit tracking position with GetScrollInfo()
+    6. Menubar
+    7. Palette handling
+    8. Middle mouse button emulation
+    9. Drag'n'drop
+   10. Images
+
+Old Issues. 
+
+    1. For some reason, HOME is a required environment variable.
