Describe the Xubuntu roadmap here. === Introductory Note ===
This page is to serve as a development roadmap for the next version of Xubuntu. In its initial stage it will contain items in a wishlist-manner and basically all users will be allowed to add items here. ''Caveat'': adding an item here does not in any way mean that it will get implemented. The first step towards implementation is for an item to get an ''assignee'', i.e. someone who will try to implement the item. After this initial period the unassigned items will be moved to an "Unassigned"-page for later use (Precise+1) or just for reference.
Ideally there will be some indicator of how the progress is going on the individual items. Furthermore it would be nice to get some feedback on the items in Xubuntu team meetings on a kind of regular basis.

''' Brainstorming weekend '''
The brainstorming weekend should be a period of determining where we want to go with the next version of Xubuntu, or what we want to do. In a Xubuntu meeting a date for this weekend will be set and people (i.e. devs and users) can add items to the wishlist here. After that weekend, there won't be any more items added to the list, so we can get a good overview of our todo-list for Precise. (What we really ''can'' do in terms of manpower etc. will be determined in the next step, "finding assignees").
People need deadlines, even for adding stuff to a wishlist. To get better planning it's good to settle on the items we want to work on in advance, not throughout the cycle (as has been the case quite often), mainly because it makes planning and focusing easier.
Adding an item to the wishlist does not mean you have to be the one implementing it, but in your personal interest you should be motivated to at least help finding someone who will.

Ideas for Precise Pangolin

Introductory Note

This page is to serve as a development roadmap for the next version of Xubuntu. In its initial stage it will contain items in a wishlist-manner and basically all users will be allowed to add items here. Caveat: adding an item here does not in any way mean that it will get implemented. The first step towards implementation is for an item to get an assignee, i.e. someone who will try to implement the item. After this initial period the unassigned items will be moved to an "Unassigned"-page for later use (Precise+1) or just for reference. Ideally there will be some indicator of how the progress is going on the individual items. Furthermore it would be nice to get some feedback on the items in Xubuntu team meetings on a kind of regular basis.

Brainstorming weekend The brainstorming weekend should be a period of determining where we want to go with the next version of Xubuntu, or what we want to do. In a Xubuntu meeting a date for this weekend will be set and people (i.e. devs and users) can add items to the wishlist here. After that weekend, there won't be any more items added to the list, so we can get a good overview of our todo-list for Precise.

Items in this group need comprehensive application comparisons. An assignee for each "group"/type of application should take up the task, ideally more than one to make it less subjective/one-sided. All proposed applications can be found in Xubuntu/Roadmap/ProposedApplications; please add one here only if that group/application has an assignee.
