There are a few things that I consider should definitely receive
attention before it gets labelled "final":-

        TIF support should either be got working or discarded.

        "camera" is in an unstable state just at the moment while
        it is being actively worked on. We need to wait for that 
        work to be completed.

        Whatever it is that "evaluate" currently does needs to be 
        documented. What it does since beta 7 is, apparently, very 
        different from what got originally documented, but I've no idea 
        what it is that it now does.

        The "Beta-10 Linux Segmentation Fault" needs to be fixed, 
        otherwise our Linux brethren won't be able to use photons.

Everything else in the bugs list is pretty trivial, and we've lived with
most of them since at least version 3.1g without complaining.
