 	- search for TODOs.
 	- new AutoGrad interface.
 	- test on other AD and GPUarray pkgs.
+	- add using LinearAlgebra: lmul!, rmul! to test/linalg.jl
+	- use global keyword in the for loops in tests
+	- update travis.yml (and even better add gpu testing through #312)
+	- add Project.toml
+	- add Manifest.toml to .gitignore
+	- update readme badges
+	- eventually, slim down update! and rnn gpu tests
