We are working to create a Roadmap of key technical and community work for the next 6 months and we want to hear from as many as possible of you in the CKAN community to find out what you think is important.
To aid this process we have created a long-list of Roadmap ideas in a Trello board which you can view, comment, vote on and add to - please take a look now and share your thoughts »
Roadmap Consultation Trello Board - vote, comment and discuss »
More Information
With the CKAN Association Steering Group and Technical Team in place, we can now think more about the CKAN "Roadmap". The goal here is to agree a short-list of 4-6 high-level technical and community items that CKAN Association will focus on in the next 6-12m. The plan is as follows:- Build a "long-list" of potential roadmap item and review / prioritize with users and the community over the next few weeks
- Create a final Roadmap selection (short-list) that will be the focus of our near-term work
- This will largely be driven by those able to put up resources, especially as official CKAN Association Members
FAQ
How does this relate to Github Ideas and Roadmap Tracker
The current ideas and roadmap tracker was used as input for this long-list. The purpose of the trello long-list was: To have a shorter high-level long-list that focused on key items (the issue tracker now has over 80 items of varying scope and detail) Provide a simple interface in which people (including non-developers) could vote and commentHow will the Roadmap be resourced
The aim of the Roadmap is to produce a list of things that the CKAN Association and general community can specifically focus and execute on. We aim to produce a list that is commensurate with current (and anticipated) resources available to the CKAN Association based on Member commitments.Where can I find out more about CKAN Roadmaps
