 == Which toolboxes could be created ==
 
 Toolboxes which could be created now in the source code (and included in the GRASS distribution):
- * Temporal toolbox (not included in the default main menu).
- * Some special sets of modules designed for particular purpose.

+ * import/export
+ * display

+Recently created toolboxes:

 == What is missing and what can be done in the future ==
 
+ * rename subtoolbox to toolbox-reference
+ * update user and programmer's manual
+ * clean the main application menu, remove all modules or leave only the most used ones
  * connection to addons:

+  * currently there is some workaround to get string from XML translated, it is not ideal
+  * strings related to modules have to be translated twice (po merge is helpful but files are bigger), however, it is not clear if it is possible to use two po files together to translate one group of string (strings from modules and stings for other things are mixed at runtime)
+  * translation of stings comming from addons or custom toolboxes is completely unresolved
