ping... Today is 1.6M1 release and I still haven't received answers on this mail.. Thanks -Vincent On Aug 12, 2008, at 2:40 PM, Vincent Massol wrote:

Hi,

We're a bit late on the planning/roadmap so here's a first try.

* 1.6M1: 18 Aug * 1.6M2: 8 Sep * 1.6RC1: 15 sep * 1.6RC2 or 1.6 final: 22 sep

Tentative Roadmap for XE 1.6:

Must have: ========

* Beta versions of new rendering + new WYSIWYG editor (Vincent & Marius) * One of the following two: ** Revamped Blog UI + features (who?) ** Easy creating of structured pages (JV) * Security issues already in JIRA (marked as high priority)

+ bug fixes or course

Good to have ==========

* Office import maybe but I think that should be optional depending on how fast it progresses. It could be released as a separate plugin for sure. * Single sign on w/ openID * French XE * Send forgotten password * Improved RSS feeds * Excel plugin * Installation wizard * Skin extension/Interface extension finalization * CSS + templates cleanup/simplification * Invitation manager in XE

My personal take is that the core development team should really focus on the "Must Have" and continue consolidating what we have by working on make it more stable, nicer looking and more usable, rather than working on new features. Of course we have all those nice SOC projects (office import, sso) that we should release/integrate if they are ready at the end of the milestone 2 of XE 1.6.

WDYT?

Thanks -Vincent

OK, but IMHO it would be better to shift everything by a week, to give enough time to integrate the experimental stuff.

Marta and I already started to work on this a bit. I think it should be a group effort, with input from Laurent, from the marketing team, some client input, user feedback... Especially users who are intensively blogging. Hopefully it will be usable by M2.

We're almost done with this one too, it could even make it into M1 if it is delayed a bit.

* Improved RSS feeds * Excel plugin * Installation wizard

I lost what I had with my old HDD, but I'll start working on it again. Maybe a first version will be in M2.

* Skin extension/Interface extension finalization

I'll finish the Skin extensions, but the Interface extensions are a bit more complex, as they should be tightly integrated with the new rendering mechanism. When would that be stable enough to start building on it?

* CSS + templates cleanup/simplification * Invitation manager in XE

* We could introduce the REST API if the project is clean enough to be included in M2.

ok, the dates have been entered in JIRA. JV is back on Monday so I'm put the XE 1.6 release for Tuesday (26th of Aug) to leave him time on Monday to review the state. I haven't changed the other dates since it simply means we've had a 1.6M1 release longer than planned but that shouldn't affect the 1.6 release. It just means that 1.6M2 will be shorter (2 weeks) and we shouldn't include things that cannot be fully done in 2 weeks (these should be left for 1.7).
