 Development plan
 ----------------
 This development plan sets a specific set of milestones for future versions of glabels.
-At this time (just prior to releasing 2.0.0) these milestones are somewhat nebulous and
-subject to change.

+			freedb (CDDB) for CD labels
+			gnome-db

+		-  Printer calibration tool: a facility for tweaking output origin and

+		   currently is not, so I may want to add the hack.
+
+		-  Adjustable grid spacing.  Spacing of visible grid should be user
+		   adjustable.  This grid spacing should be an integral multiple of
+		   a finer invisible grid.  There should be a "snap to grid" toggle,
+		   that causes all posistioning and sizing performed on the canvas
+		   to snap to the closest grid.  The possible grid spacing should be
+		   appropriate for the current units selected (e.g. .1 points, .01 mm,
+		   1/64 inch, 0.001 inch).
+
+		-  Handle namespace collisions better in template designer.  Ask to
+		   override existing templates, or perhaps automatically suffix the
+		   name when duplicate.  Allow for management of custom templates
+		   (i.e. delete, rename, edit).

 		   overlays photographs, so that it stands out against
