[Koha] 2.2.0 Roadmap

[Paul POULAIN]

Hi Koha fans,

Chrismas & new year approches, so, i wanted to share with you the 
roadmap of Koha :
* today, i'll release Koha 2.2.0RC5. Fixes a few problems, and adds few 
features.
* I'll be away of the web from tuesday 21 to january, 3rd. But don't 
worry, i'll continue hacking a little bit Koha. In fact, i plan to do 3 
things :
- write scripts to migrate a library that will adopt Koha in 2005Q1.
- write a DOC to explain deeply how to migrate datas from XX to Koha, 
and tune all Koha parameters (authorized values, authorities...) to have 
a perfectly working cataloguing tool. Will be in french, so translators 
fr => en are welcomed.
- "copy" improved virtual shelves tools into OPAC.

* On January, 3rd, for my return, unless there is a major problem 
appearing, i'll release official 2.2.0 !!!
This date has been choosen because it will be the 5th birthday of our 
preferred ILS. A great date, really.


TECHNICAL info : i'll create a new branch in CVS for 2.2.0 on january. 
Until then, please, just commit bugfixes and/of minor improvements in 
the HEAD branch. At least, commit NOTHING that needs a change in the DB.
Note that 2.2.x will probably contain some great tools being developped 
by Nelsonville at the moment. don't be too impatient, just know that it 
will be really great (for public libraries, just nice for search 
libraries) ;-)

PRIVATE info : today, it's my 10th wedding birthday ;-)
