  Personally I don't think roadmaps are all that usefull for open
  source projects that depend on volunteer work. Volunteers tend to
  work on an area that either scratches an itch for them or that
  interests them. 
 
 Fine, may i have the list of 'itch'es ?

Thank you Patrick for the help.

This is the document that i was searching for on freebsd.org and
wiki.freebsd.org . Is there any reason, to not have this
document on freebsd.org website like other projects ?


thanks

Is there a roadmap for FreeBSD ?

2009-03-10 Thread Saifi Khan
Hi all:

Is there a roadmap for FreeBSD ?

i spent sometime reading up the website, but couldn't find any
information regarding the roadmap. What exactly is 8.x trying to
accomplish ?


thanks
Saifi.

I'm not sure there even is one. :)

The road that is taken depends mostly on what the people working on the
code want to tackle, I guess. Looking at the -current mailing list
should probably give you an idea what is being worked on.

Personally I don't think roadmaps are all that usefull for open source
projects that depend on volunteer work. Volunteers tend to work on an
area that either scratches an itch for them or that interests them.

Generally, CURRENT is a branch to introduce changes that would be too
intrusive in the release brances or STABLE.

Other than that, you'd better ask on the -current or -hackers list.
