Well, off the top of my head: there are a few sections missing.
So, if you feel like adding to the project, just take a look at the \todo{} sections.
Also, we keep a TODO.txt file in the git repo.

Another very crucial open issue is testing.
We need to be able to test our recommendations and make sure 
that there are no bugs there.

We need reviewers and proof reading. Ideally a native speaker.

Today is also the last day for adding additional features (for version 1 of the document). 
So if you still find some important section missing, let us know today if possible.

Another completely open task is improving the bettercrypto.org website. I managed to make it a little bit pretty, but we don't have much content yet.

Finally, what's *really* needed urgently: 
* someone with more crypto background (IAIK?) to look at our recommendations and to correc them.
  So far they are just educated guesses.
* writing seciton 7 (RNGs)
* cleaning up section 8
  * writing 8.3
  * checking 8.2
  * adding screenshots of ssllabs tests to 8.5
  * integrate 8.5.6 and 8.5.7 (these two parts were the "old section 8". They still contain good info) 
In general, section 8 is still a bit messy.

* every subsection in section 9 should be structured as "apache" 9.1.1.
