 Extend and improve the existing [wiki:MacPortsGUI basic GUI] which has been implemented as part of GSoC 2008/2009. Pallet is at the moment functional to install/uninstall ports, but for example it cannot handle variants yet. Also, it is slow if you have many ports installed.
 
-Some feature proposals:
+Features to be implemented:
  * Variant selection
- * Interactive dependency tree/graph
+ * List Library, Compile, and Runtime Dependencies
+ * Growl notifications
+ * Queueing of operations
+ * Fix the framework to work with the latest MacPorts version
 
-The GUI is driven by the MacPorts Framework, which acts as an wrapper of the MacPorts Tcl API to Objective-C. To enhance the GUI you will probably have to implement the respective features in the framework first.
 
-It would be your task to identify possible improvements for the GUI. This can either be new features or (speed) improvements to existing ones.
