I want to write a book; my great masterpiece. It would start from topology, would discover ``quantum groups'' as a natural consequence, and cleanly implement every single tensor and equation using the ``solvable approximations'' technique. Many of the tasks are done; many of the chapters are essentially written in my head. It's got a great potential! Yet so many things are still missing.

\todo{Locate $\rho_k$.\told}

\todo{Figure out traces.\told}

\todo{Figure out degree-by-degree constructions, perhaps starting with associators.\told}

\todo{Clarify denominators and make the programs truly efficient.\told}

\todo{Complete the $sl_2$ portfolio by including the classical algebra, associators, vertices, the Cartan involution, dequantizators, the EK/\v{S}evera constructions.\told}

\todo{A topological interpretation of said portfolio must be found!\told}

\todo{Do $gl_n$ and beyond.\told}

\todo{Write the damn book!\told}
