Development Roadmap
Milestones are set as short timelines (around
three weeks), with a few key features. We will be doing plenty
of bug fixing and other work during the development towards a
milestone, but "meeting a milestone" requires the specified
features to have been implemented.
Upcoming:
-
0.13.1 (interim) (Monday, 24 June 2002):
module system
(issue #517), and
client feedback system rewrite
(issue #662)
More to be added after discussion, watch this space.
-
Alpha (TBD, July): Most commonly used features
completed. Freeze on any new "major" features.
-
Beta (TBD, July/Aug timeframe): Release candidate,
heavy testing. Possible inclusion of newer, less popular
features.
-
1.0 Release (TBD): Release.
Done:
-
Subversion 0.13.0 (Monday, 10 June 2002): Wrapping up
large work items in preparation for an Alpha release.

(issue #654);
vsn-rsrc-urls use rev/path

- Subversion 0.10 (8 Mar 2002): usability,
reliability, and performance:

were reached together, and fix various bugs related to properties,
networking, and filesystem deltification.
- Milestone 3 (30 August 2001): Subversion is now
