+    \begin{itemize}[<+-|alert at +>]
+      \item \QL represents a decade of work leading to the recent 1.0 release.
+      \item RQuantLib (still) exposes only a subset of the available
+        functionality.
+%      \item A lot of \QL functionality could still be added to RQuantLib.
+      \item We are thinking about
+        \begin{itemize}[<+-|alert at +>]
+        \item Conversion to the new Rcpp API
+        %\item Expand the FI functionality
+        %\item Expanding the calendar / date functionality
+        \item Expanding the GUIs to the option pricers
+        \item And of course add more products and \QL functionality
+        \end{itemize}
+      \item We welcome feedback as well as contributions -- just register at
+        the R-Forge project site.
