Roadmap

Tue, 28 Mar 2006 14:16:00 GMT

I started a new blog just for development discussion. One of my goals with the new site is to communicate more efficiently with users and project members about what is happening with the project.

In the past I haven’t talked much about a roadmap so let me start by saying that the 0.66 release is near completion, over the last few betas there has been several fixes and it is looking very stable at the moment. I would like to release 0.66 on Sunday April 2nd.

For the most part users have seen the enhancements to this version and screenshots are now up for users that have not upgraded.

The next version 0.67 or BugNET 2005 will be moving the project to ASP.NET 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005. With this move comes some redesign challenges but also brings some great benefits.

A short list of things that I would like to focus on in the next version are:

Membership Roles using the new membership provider
Finish outstanding feature requests.
Globalization / Localization
User friendly installation / upgrades with windows installer.
Themes and Skins

More to come.
