Agreed.  Let's put some work into a really well thought out feature list
and present it only when we're pretty sure we can implement these things
(ie after seeing the op-code definitions and some subsequent pondering).
Then we can "go public" with our plans and it won't look like
vapourware/dreamware.

Yes, just click the "Feature requests" or "Bugs" links on the main project
page.  It looks pretty easy to add feature requests and bug notifications.
