Some ideas from my list:
8. Improve loading/unloading of atmel-usb or bring in at76c503a
    and improve it.
9. Bring in alsa patches to provide play/record at the same time
10. Work out how to use the volume buttons on the left hand side.
11. Straighten out thumbprint reader (does it or does it not work).
12. Check Jamey's work to see if we no longer need the sound modules
    to run the i2s bus
13. Check bedboi's work on headphone and microphone jack
14. Get bedboi or someone else to get a interrupt watcher for that jack
15. Verify that we can switch power modes on the wifi adapter

Considering I have zero time to make progress on any of these items I
have been loathe to mention them. But here they are.

handhelds cvs seems to be up to 37.1. But I still don't know what the
improvements are except for one. Jamey was moving the i2s bus control
out of sound modules so one doesn't have to install it to use sound.
