+Adding a strict mode to reader/parser
+----
+Strict JSON support as specific in RFC 4627 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4627.txt?number=4627).
+
+- Enforce only object or array as root element
+- Disable comment support
+  - Get jsonchecker failing tests to pass in strict mode
+
+Writer control
+----
+Provides more control to determine how specific items are serialized when JSON allow choice:
+
+- Optionally allow escaping of non-ASCII characters using unicode escape sequence "\\u".
+- Optionally allow escaping of "/" using "\/".
+
+Exposing json reader/writer API that do not impose using `Json::Value`.
+----
+Some typical use-case involve an application specific structure to/from a JSON document.
+- Event base parser to allow unserializing a Json document directly in datastructure instead of using the intermediate Json::Value.
+- Stream based parser to serialized a Json document without using Json::Value as input.
+Performance oriented parser/writer:
+- Provides an event based parser. Should allow pulling & skipping events for ease of use.
+- Provides a JSON document builder: fast only.
+
+Performance tuning
+-----
+- Provides support for static property name definition avoiding allocation
+- Static property dictionnary can be provided to JSON reader
+- Performance scenario & benchmarking
+
+Testing
+----
+- Adds more tests for unicode parsing (e.g. including surrogate and error detection).
+
+Making JsonCpp ready for release
+----
+- Build system clean-up:
+  - Fix build on Windows (shared-library build is broken)
+  - Compile and run tests using shared library on Windows to ensure no JSON_API macro is missing.
+  - Add enable/disable flag for static and shared library build
+  - Enhance help
+- Platform portability check: (Notes: was ok on last check)
+  - linux/gcc,
+  - solaris/cc,
+  - windows/msvc678,
+  - aix/vacpp
+- Add JsonCpp version to header as numeric for use in preprocessor test
+- Remove buggy experimental hash stuff
