Hi, Moving back to the topic of the roadmap, the Wiki page is now:
http://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=faqs:evergreen_roadmap:2.10 If you are working on new features or enhancements that you expect to be ready in time to make it into 2.10, please update the wiki page today or reply to me with your additions. Next week, I'll start contacting folks individually if they (or their organization) is a frequent code contributor but they haven't yet updated the roadmap.
