This page covers the scope and activities for upcoming ImageN releases. This is a community led project and we very much welcome your participation.

This page is focused on planned activities. Feature requests and new ideas are restricted to the issue tracker. Our experience shows that listing ideas on a roadmap discourages participation and leads to disappointment.

If an item is marked tentative it is an invitation to collaborate on the feature, do not plan around the feature being available.
