Not many votes so far. How come?

From what you've listed I'd like to see:

1. U++ embedded [m]
Rather than creating the n-th web development framework, exploring a more neglected field might be more interesting. Especially interesting would be to run applications without an underlying operating system in a frame buffer on some development board. In another thread, the Raspberry Pi has been identified as potentially promising.

2. some production quality complex examples [w]
If I understand the description correctly, this will provide well-commented and explained example U++ applications and will as such serve documentation. This would be very welcome. Additionally, further in the documentation department, there should really be a PDF manual on the web site or alternatively a printer friendly single-page HTML manual to get people started. Documentation is actually as important as functionality and seems to be somewhat poor.

3. further and proper extension of U++ for python [w]
What exactly does this mean? Extending U++ for Python development? If so, that should be done in a general way to allow U++ to support further languages. Support for Python development in U++ would also address the wish to do web development in U++, since there already are some Python web frameworks. I also don't see of what use C++ would be in web development. There's also haXe that can be used to generate C++ code, and with a general way for U++ to support development in different languages, it could be used in U++ for web development.

4. IPv6 support [d]
Can't be wrong, no?
