+Here are some things that would be useful additions to groff:
+
+ ideal preprocessor - Bernd Warken <groff-bernd.warken-72@web.de> I
+ started the programming of `ideal' language and `gideal'
+ preprocessor, which will eventually be added to the groff
+ distribution.
+
+ refer: `refer' database directory under /usr/local/share.
+ There maybe create a default database `Ind' or others for
+ storing books and documents for `groff' man pages.
+ Write the following `groff' programs from Heirloom and
+ `refer' history:
+ - addbib
+ - roffbib
+ - sortbib
+
+ -mv macros (for typesetting viewgraphs and slides)
+
+ a deroff that understands long names
+
+ a page-makeup postprocessor and associated macro package
+ (like pm and -mpm)
+
+If you want to work on one of these, you should probably post to
+gnu.groff.bug (or send email to groff@gnu.org) to see if anyone else
+has gotten there first.
