Two things:

1. There's a guy who submitted a patch to replace the standard hash
table with a Patricia Trie, solving some scaling problems, but never
got around to filling out the GPL paperwork. It would be good to get
that in if it's been reviewed favorably, which I think is the case. I
know him and will ping him.

2. As far as I know my enhancement http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?33138
is ready to go and of course I'd like to see it in the next release.
