I am not a big fan of using the development portal / bug tracking tool for sending / discussing feature request. I favour a regular mailing list ex. dev@ list where anyone that wish to receive upcoming feature can subscribe. Perhaps the dev@ list could receive a copy of any new feature requests that's opened / updated in the development portal. If we want to make sure everything gets tracked in the development portal, make the list read only and force users to submit updates though the portal. Or, make it possible to easily receive notifications of new "features" requests (such as an RSS feed) and make sure issues are properly categorized (one may not want to receive general users / unconfirmed bugs or support requests). Also I think the users@ list could be for general support / users discussion. Any new features or patches could be discussed in a separate dev@ list. Also perhaps the ecosystem@ list could be renamed to something more meaningful, at one point it wasn't clear for me if ecosystem@ was for general development discussions. >At the beginning of each release cycle we organize a IRC >meeting<http://opennebula.org/community:irc> to discuss the requests for new features and for extending > existing features.

The final roadmap is described in a blog post after the planning meeting. +1 !! :-) Simon On Mon, Apr 29, 2013 at 9:11 AM, Javier Fontan <[email protected]>wrote: > Dear community, > > We've been thinking on how to improve the communication channel > between users and developers.
