Is there a roadmap for the STAP development?

Hi,

I am considering some patches for SystemTap - mostly fixing minor
inconveniences. Obviously I would like to align the efforts and,
hopefully merge the patches into the master. Is there a document
describing the SystemTap development roadmap?

Examples of things I would like to extend

* Add build only flag in the stap utility which does not require root privileges
* Add RPM spec file supporting automatic build of the kernel driver
after kernel updates
* In the _stp_reserve_bytes() return indication that the trace buffer
is overwritten
* Add support for zero copy data transfer

Etc

Thanks
