Abstract
We review the current status of calculations of the two pion decays of the kaon using the first-principles methods of lattice gauge theory and the significant challenges that these calculations pose. While a calculation with controlled errors at even the 10-20% level has not yet been performed, present results suggest that such a calculation of the real and imaginary parts of the Delta I = 3/2 amplitude should be accomplished within the next two years. The more difficult Delta I = 1/2 amplitude may also be now within reach.
