Roadmap
Last modified by Vincent Massol on 2025/07/04
The XWiki development process uses JIRA for listing all tasks to be implemented and all bugs to be fixed. You'll find there the dates and versions planned for issues to be fixed and hence the XWiki roadmaps.
If you're interested to help out check the contributing page.
Already implemented roadmaps can be found in the archives, and you can also check the release notes for past releases.

At least parts of the last one are non-trivial, and during its implementation we might identify the need for larger changes as we might also need to enforce required rights on the configuration pages itself.
