 WebKit Project Ideas:
+  * SVG
     * SVG Filters - Implement a platform-independent set of c++ based SVG filters, as detailed in the the [http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/filters.html SVG FULL 1.1 specification].  Currently only the Mac platform has a filters implementation (CoreImage based).  These are disabled in tip of tree WebKit.
     * Fix our [http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/animate.html SVG Animation] implementation - we can't pass [http://acid3.acidtests.org/ Acid3] without it
     * SVG Bug fighting (clipping redesign, xhtml/svg integration issues, a lot more, please ask)
+  * CSS
     * Pass the rest of the [http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Test/CSS2.1/current/ CSS 2.1 test suite] (and possibly the [http://samples.msdn.microsoft.com/csstestpages/default.htm new suite from Microsoft])
     * CSS3 Paged Media - Add support for [http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-page/ CSS3 Paged Media], or a subset thereof.  Currently we have no support in WebKit.
+  * Other new specifications/Features
     * MathML (at least the presentational parts, can get very far with a stylesheet only) - http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-MathML/
     * Ruby - http://www.w3.org/TR/ruby/

     * Interruptible JavaScript evaluation
     * Generational JavaScript garbage collection
     * Improved source syntax highlighting
-  * Backend Work
-    * Cairo SVG backend completion (gradients, patterns and other bug fixes to make the test suite results match the CG backend)
-    * Qt SVG backend completion
-    * ATK accessibility support
   * Platform Ports
     * Native Windows port - the current (Apple) Windows port requires use of non-redistributable Apple libraries.  There has been effort underway to create a Native Windows port that does not require Apple libraries.  More help in this effort would be useful.
-    * Windows Mobile port - there has been mention of at least 3 Windows Mobile ports of WebKit.  It would be useful to create and/or consolidate a single Windows Mobile port integrated into the main WebKit trunk.
