There are quite a few things to fix in both FFC and DOLFIN before a
release.

FFC:

1. Use FooTransformedSpace in FIAT to get correct function spaces on
UFC reference element. This also requires making a new release of
FIAT.

2. A few fixes are needed for the JIT compiler.

3. Get BDM, RT, BDFM, Nedelec working when using FIAT transformed
spaces.

4. Maybe some fixes for quadrature elements. Kristian?

DOLFIN:

1. Computation of parallel dof map.

2. Get parallel assembly working.

3. Finish the implementation of linear algebra factories (still some
problems with circular dependencies).

4. Move to new scons-based build system.

I think a best-case scenario is we can have these fixed by the end of
January, possibly 1-2 weeks later. Maybe the scons-based build system
can wait if it takes time to finish.
