 Todo lists are used by the developers when a software development is needed. This is common when there is a software development plan, such as the inclusion of new code or port code to the HyperbolaBSD kernel or userspace, new features, etc. The progress can be tracked here, and completed todo lists can be browsed as well. Todo lists are used by the developers when a software development is needed.

 +===== Important notes =====
 +
 +<note important>
 +**HyperbolaBSD** is under a **progressive** migration by replacing all non GPL-compatible code. It will be replaced with new compatible code under [[https://www.freebsd.org/copyright/freebsd-license/|Simplified BSD License]]((Known also as FreeBSD License or 2-clause BSD License)).  We do this in order to incorporate GPL code from other projects such as ReactOS, as well new code from scratch.

 +===== Generic for Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre =====
 +<note important>We do what we can about fixing packages. Nevertheless we have to approve stability and security first for everything. Please be aware that you can do package-builds also on your own and share them with the community for supporting also the further development of Hyperbola as project and system. We like to work together on this. Also we do not add new packages on demand, especially not when they are only for GNU/Linux-systems. In that case please provide your own sources and ports. Thank you!</note>
