Feature roadmap

In the following list, each feature is associated with a corresponding milestone. The convention for the priorities are:

P0 feature will block the milestone; we will delay the milestone date until the feature is shipped.
P1 feature can delay the milestone if the feature can be shipped with a reasonable delay.
P2 feature will be dropped and rescheduled for later rather than delaying the milestone.

We will update this list when reaching each milestone. Some milestones may also be refined if appropriate.
