I'm willing to start by cleaning up http://wiki.freebsd.org/MissingMathStuff
if one of you would like to give PeterJeremy write access to it.

As a start, I was thinking of a table that listed each outstanding
function, together with:
- a URL for code/patch to implement (& test) it
- PR covering it
- contact name for person working on it
- details of commits to each branch
- Any other notes.
(If any of you have, or know of, uncommitted patches, I'd appreciate details).

I would also like to include details of relevant references that will
be of use to anyone working on these functions.  Off the top of my head
(and from previous postings in this thread):
http://dlmf.nist.gov
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19957-01/806-3568/ncg_goldberg.html
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~wkahan/

Is it worth writing up a paragraph or two to go into the forthcoming
quarterly status report that at least says that we realize there is
a gap and we would be happy for any assistance in filling it?
