These lists are meant to provide the developers a reminder of undone projects. It is also a wish list capturing user’s desires for new features. New developers can also look here for projects which they might be interested in working on.
See tasks for non-programmer tasks.
This section should contain a list of only those issues that are considered as being important enough to block release until they are resolved. If a feature or bug gets bumped or has its importance reduced, please remove it from the list or move it to the appropriate later release.
Todos for past releases can be seen on the historical page.
