Welcome to the Toxcore todo list, this is very likely out of date, but either way it's a good jumping off point if you're looking to see where core is going, or where it could use a little love.
There are 3 sections; In Progress, TODO, and Done. These tasks are somewhat sorted by priority, but that shouldn't be taken to mean that this is the order tasks will (or should) be completed in.
- [IN PROGRESS] Audio/Video
- [DONE] encoding/streaming/decoding
- [DONE] Call initiation
- [DONE] Encryption
- [NEEDS TESTING] Video packet splitting.
- [IN PROGRESS] Auditing.
- [IN PROGRESS] Prevent audio skew (seems to be easily solvable client side.)
- [IN PROGRESS] Group chats, audio done.
- Networking:
- [NEEDS TESTING] UPnP port forwarding. (#969)
- [TODO] NAT-PMP port forwarding.
- DHT:

- [TODO] Group private messages. (and adding friends from group chats using those private messages.)

- [IN PROGRESS] Make toxcore thread safe.
- [MOSTLY DONE] A way for people to connect to people on Tox if they are behind a bad NAT that blocks UDP (or is just unpunchable) (docs/TCP_Network.txt) (Current way doesn't scale very well.)
