+    (Ideally the hardware is set back to post-reset state after this call.

 [ ] Clean up make system. Currently I think there are many things from the
     Linux make system which are not needed for U-Boot.

 [ ] get/set for nonextisting parameters crashes
 [ ] There is a xmalloc function which panics when out of memory. Use this
     function where we don't want to check for oom. Same applies to
     strdup/xstrdup.
 [ ] cleanup common.h. There are far too many things in it where we better have
     a seperate header file.
+    (Use doxygen to track header file hierachy)
 [ ] Rewrite network stack. The one-loop-for-all-protocols stack is just too
     ugly and big and uses thousands of global variables. Identify common
     functions and make a loop per network protocol
 [-] Cleanup cpu/*. Many functions there are not cpu specific. For example the
     cache functions for arm are common for most arm processors. (done for ARM)
+    (I will check this for m68k arch - csc 21.03.2008 19:56:24)
 [ ] Board support should go to arch/*/boards/*
 [ ] Move SoC specific header files from include/ to include/asm/arch/
-[ ] The header files in include/asm-linux/ are i386 specific. Make it work on

-[ ] Globbing support? Might be too expensive, but on the other hand, if you

-[ ] Implement protect/unprotect support for cfi devices.
-[ ] Implement a command 'countdown' or similar. It should delay the boot

-    be any key, ctrl-c or a certain string. Maybe like this:
-    countdown -m msg -t timeout -x [ctrl-c|anykey|string]
-    If done, remove the corresponding stuff from common/main.c
 [ ] Several .c/.h files do not have GNU/copyright headers.
 [ ] The cramfs driver currently uses direct memory accesses instead of read().
     This disqualifies it for real block devices.
