 ### Milestones
 (This list is incomplete.)
 
+Items are marked off not as they are 100% implemented, but rather once I
+consider them stable enough that completion is soley a matter of getting
+around to it -- no tough design decisions, theorising, etc. remain. For
+example, as of writing this, the rl' frontend parser is not fully featured,
+yet it is marked off on this list; finishing it would require cranking out
+the remaining grammatical rules, and no work on complex tasks like layout
+parsing remains.
