Roadmap

The Roadmap aims to set out when certain features will appear. It reduces in clarity the further we go into the future, and is constantly being added to as we move forward.

If you're just looking to find out whether a feature is likely to end up in Nether or not, then take a look at the planned features page. It's just a list, but we're adding more detail to it as we go.

GitHub Backlogs

In order to manage issue priority in GitHub, we use :

• Up-for-Grab - contains issues which are small but important improvements that are ready for grab
• Next Backlog - contains issues which are ready to be worked on as part of the current milestone
• Future Backlog - contains issues which aren't ready to be worked on yet

The idea is that any issue in the Current or Next backlog can be picked up and worked on. If the PR gets merged, the code goes out in the next release. We ask developers to pick up issues (particularly any bugs) in the Current Backlog as a priority. The roadmap is a public guide to which features are most important for the next release, but this only covers features, not technical improvements or bug fixes.

General Focus

The current general focus of the project is on shipping features which are asked by our partners.

The plan is to ship as many of the partner required features as possible up until mid 2017, and then switch our focus from improving the existing core functionality to new features like achievements, match making and more
