About this page

This page is a rough guide on what we're doing over the next few months as part of our current development cycle.

Using the page

Use this page to keep track of what we are planning on doing, and when. If you think "I'd like to know what to expect of Launchpad over the coming months", then this is the page to follow.

We intend to maintain this page for future planning cycles of Launchpad, so if you are at all interested in having a say in Launchpad development subscribe now.

We've crammed as many links as we could find into the page. These links themselves often link to other things. Follow these links and explore the dark and dangerous world of Launchpad development.

The dates

"Dec 2009" means "targeted to the rollout at the end of December 2009". Each month is linked to the Launchpad release milestone for that date, so you can see what we're actually doing.

Note that the dates here aren't actually commitments, they are just our best guesses.

How complete is it?

Sometimes we'll do cool stuff and won't note it down here. Follow our blog for things like that.

Also, this is mostly about Canonical-sponsored development. Community contributors are welcome to join in, but are just as welcome to scratch whatever itches them.

Questions?

This page is maintained by the Launchpad Product Strategist. If you have any questions, contact the strategist, or begin a discussion on the Launchpad users mailing list.

This page is, and probably always will be a work-in-progress. If our plans change, we'll try to make sure you hear about it. If you have any ideas on how we can do that better — or make the roadmap more useful — contact the strategist or make a note on the page itself.

Roadmap

Month	Bug Q&A (also a story)	Bug heat	Patch tracking	Translations	Daily Builds	Code imports	Supporting features
Dec 2009	First question for bug Q&A (does this affect you?)	Algorithm design	Patches separate from attachments on bug page	Infrastructure work	Refactoring of build system Recipe schema Recipe UI design	bzr-svn imports	Bug-free package / project linking experience
Jan 2010	Q&A UI widget Second bug Q&A question (steps to reproduce?)	Bug heat initial feature-complete UI	List of bugs with patches Badge for bugs with patches in listings	Beta delivery of Gnome direct import	End-to-end recipe building	bzr-hg imports	Portlet & page on distro page showing most important unlinked packages Initial Q&A workflow for source package linking (Is it this project?) Easier linking from source packages
Feb 2010	Full delivery of Q&A on bug pages Initial cut of exposing bug readiness in listings	Solid delivery & polish of bug heat	DONE	KDE direct import ability Final delivery of GNOME direct import	Recipe workflow UI	Scaling work for code imports bug 236973 and bug 487357	Q&A for source package linking
Mar 2010	Full delivery of bug readiness in listings	DONE	DONE	Translation import crowdsourcing Automatic use of upstream translation imports	Building from recipes with private branches		Drive-through project creation User-visible indication of project completeness (bugs 204119 and 490593)

Things that need to go onto the roadmap, somehow

Many of these things don't fit into our themes, but we have to do to satisfy external obligations.

Supporting infrastructure

UI for selecting an archive
Crowd-sourcing
- code import maintenance
- bug import maintenance

Software Centre support

Other

Archive snapshots
Online documentation for recipes
Building a community around daily builds
ARM support for PPAs
Branch privacy for distributions
