# QAST Roadmap

This is an overall list of things that need doing and problems that need
solving on the way to having a QAST-based Rakudo and NQP.

## QAST Issues

### Fix NQP regressions
The toqast branch, even though QAST is only being used for regexes still,
has some regressions over master. Fix them.

### Finish lexical lookup handling
Always-by-name lookups (for things like $_ that are lazy in Rakudo). Also
handle looking at symbol table to find that things are lexical.

### Register Type Coercions
Get the various coercions in place, with the appropriate ones as HLL-level
configurable operations.

### Exceptions
Design whatever mechanism is going to replace the PAST::Control and related
machinery. Implement it.

### Serialization Context
Add some QAST handling for serialization contexts, so as to replace laodinit.

### :op('for')
Implement it

### loop handling of various phasers
Need to figure out the REDO bits, etc. Try and make it so we've a way to avoid
the PIR code in MapIter and so getting while loop phasers in place in Rakudo is
easy also.

## Rakudo

Overall plan: create a branch, start changing stuff to QAST, see what happens.
List any design level issues here.
solving on the way to having a QAST-based NQP.
