Roadmap
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. There's also a release calendar listing all known dates for future releases. Please understand that these dates are often tentative since XWiki's development is open source and lots of committers/contributors are working in their free time on XWiki.
If you're interested to help out check the contributing page.
General goals for all releases:
- More tests
- Better javadoc
- More documentation on xwiki.org
- Code cleanup/refactoring
Already implemented roadmaps can be found in the archives.
Note that all planned release dates are also entered in the Calendar on JIRA.

XWiki 12.6
Context:
Branch for recommended version. We need to finish:
- Scalable Notifications
- Mentions
- InPlace WYSIWYG Editing (several issues raised: live rendering of macros, issues with rendered macro not displaying anything and make it hard to edit them, see https://forum.xwiki.org/t/xwiki-12-4-id-macro-shows-blank/7007/3, etc)
Tasks:
- Finalize mentions (priority 1 over Page likes) - Manuel and/or Simon
- Major testing of notifications scalability with new event store + enable it by default and handle migrations - Thomas
- Improve in-place editing - Marius
- Handle macros that don't output anything( such as the id macro)
- https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-17284 (improve in general how page translation are handled)
- implement full screen mode
- enable office importer
- New usable LT v1.0 released and included in XS - Clement/Marius
- Page Likes - Simon and/or Manuel
- Local Extension Index (needed for FASTEN) - Thomas
Best effort (after all the rest has been done):
