Here are some quick notes as far as a cairo roadmap goes.
See also the TODO file for a different view, (less organized, but
often in more detail, particularly for the API Shakeup work in
progress).
cairo 1.0 release requirements
==============================
Implementation work
-------------------
I1. Fix clipping to be sane
Dificulty: moderate
Status: cworth has started looking at this
I2. Real PostScript/PDF fallbacks (cairo_meta_surface_t)
Difficulty: hard
Status: otaylor has drafted a plan or two on the list
API Issues (more detail in TOO
------------------------------
A1. Add cairo_paint
Difficulty: moderate or moderate to minor after [I1]
Status: cworth has a patch nearly complete
A2. Add cairo_mask
Difficulty: moderate
Status: cworth sent API proposal to the list
A3. Make set_source consistent
Difficulty: easy, but needs [A2] to avoid losing functionality
Status: cworth has patch basically complete
A5. Add cairo_begin/end/get_group
Difficulty: easy to hard (depending on how sophisticated an
implementation is acceptable, and whether the
cairo_meta_surface_t mentioned in [I2] is done)
Status: cworth sent API proposal to the list
(still some unresolved API issues)
A6. Add cairo_clip/fill/stroke_preserve
Difficulty: easy
Status: cworth has patch basically complete
A7. Just eliminate a bunch of functions:
cairo_set_target_*
cairo_copy
cairo_surface_set_repeat/matrix/filter
cairo_show_surface (depends on [A1])
Difficulty: trivial
Status: just waiting for a less inconvient time to break
compatibility
A8. cairo_surface_mark_dirty
Difficulty: trivial to add API, moderate to actually optimize
based on it
Status: cworth has sent API proposal to list
Performance work
----------------
P1. Make pixel-aligned rectangle compositing fast
Difficulty: moderate to easy
Status: none
P2. Generate better trapezoids to go easier on the rasterizer
Difficulty: moderate to hard
Status: cworth drafted a plan to the list
