Roadmap

This page exists to provide a rough overview of what is planned for upcoming releases, although such planning changes daily. For the most part development is driven by developer interests, user requests, and pressing needs. Related discussion pages include:

  • Feature Requests - If there is a feature that you would like to see added please discuss it on this page.
  • Feedback - For general discussions of JAMWiki or support requests.
  • Bug Reports - Please report any bugs on this page.
  • How to Help - For those interested in implementing a specific feature.

This list is a work-in-progress, and will definitely be modified over time. For roadmap items that have been incorporated into JAMWiki releases see Roadmap/Past Release Cycles. To request a feature not listed here, please use the Feature Requests page.

[Edit]Release Cycles

Users who have a feature that they would like to see implemented are encouraged to comment on the Feature Requests page. Please note that Bug Reports are handled separately from feature requests, and bugs should be reported on the appropriate page.

While it is nearly impossible to predict what code will be contributed by outside developers, what existing developers might choose to work on, or what users will request that might be implemented, the following items are tentatively planned for implementation during each major release cycle. See Roadmap/Past Release Cycles for the roadmap for older releases.

[Edit]1.0.x

The release cycle leading up to JAMWiki 1.0 is envisioned as a series of releases to improve stability, performance, Mediawiki compatibility and ease-of-use. Items that will be a focus of development include:

  • See Tech:JAMWiki 1.0.0
  • Shared image repositories. revision 3115 adds the ability to specify a virtual wiki as a "shared repository". Users can then access any image/file from that virtual wiki as if it was uploaded on their current virtual wiki.
  • Tech:FCKEditor Integration
  • Improve documentation, both inline and on jamwiki.org.
  • Fix outstanding bugs.

[Edit]Future

Following the 1.0 release future JAMWiki release cycles will likely need to include a focus on the following:

  • Scalability including support for multiple servers.
  • Plugin support.
