 .SH UNSUPPORTED FEATURES
 
 As of version 1.0.0, wimlib supports capturing and applying WIMs directly from
-NTFS and has much improved support for hard links and symbolic links.  I don't
-think there are many other features that would be worth it to implement; the
-only significant thing missing (in my opinion) is that split WIMs need to be
-handled better (e.g. it should be possible to apply a split WIM using \fBimagex
-apply\fR).  And if Microsoft updates the WIM format, I'd need to support it, but
-it looks like the format for Windows 8 is the same as that of Windows 7.

+porting the library to Windows (which I'm not really interested in), the main
