Hi all,

The roadmap I have in mind is basically to get the gcode exporter bugs 
fixed and then push a release candidate to flush out any serious 
shortcomings before doing a release that can be picked by distros.

Maybe add a couple of exporters while I'm at it, there seem to be good 
candidates.

This is a roadmap which is open for debate (please do voice your opinion 
on what you think is important for you as a user of pcb).

Anyone can open a "roadmap" blue print on Launchpad and start a write-up 
about a requested feature.

Anyone can join in on how to solve a bug.

These things can get quickly done if we get rid of the bus number of "1" 
or "2".

We need more people to get active and actually test and review patches 
and get them commits to an acceptable level.

And by an acceptable level, I mean no trailing white space, no quick 
hacks, no gtk3 stuff (for now), identation, etc. etc.

Sunday September 25th will see another "monthly pcb code sprint", I hope 
to see you all participating.

Kind regards,

Bert Timmerman.

Oh, and BTW, I first have to figure out and dry-run the release process 
as it is a first for me.
