More gopher clients: maybe more documentation on how to write gopher clients is required? It would be very nice to have a gopher module for AVFS and gopher support in dillo for example (yes, I know I should write them, but there are only so many hours in the day). More gopher servers: I think this is being addressed, maybe. It would be nice to see gopher modules for superservers like serveez, which would open the possibility of "gopher servlets". I don't know if the Apache gopher module can/will do them too. More docs: a good guide to setting up a gopher server (if there is one, please point me at it... I need it). A final settlement to the gopher licence fee saga, if there hasn't already been one. If there has, notify the authors who say otherwise. -- MJR
