This article is a work in progress, and is intended to become a centralized list of what we want to see for the 0.5.0 release, how it can be accomplished, and who is planning to work on it.

General roadmap discussion should occur in the proper thread. The wiki talk page may be used for discussion and refinement of specific points, and conversations pertaining to the roadmap article itself.

0.5.0 Task List

Stuff that should get done before the release.

Aspects for consideration

Stuff that's under discussion and may coincide with the release.


Future additions

These will hopefully be implemented sometime in the future, probably after 0.5.0.
