Qt Creator Roadmapping Process

Examples for things that should end up on the roadmap are:

  • new plugins (i.e. supporting a new build system, etc)
  • major changes to existing plugins
  • major overhaul of parts of the existing infrastructure

Every item that is relevant for the roadmap needs to be agreed on by either the current maintainer (if the change is for specific parts of Qt Creator) or the current Qt Creator maintainer (e.g. in case it's a new plugin). The items on the list are indicative, but not mandatory. This means that if a feature is not of (beta) release quality in time for feature freeze, it will skip the release. This helps us to release early & often. Center for discussion of features is the public mailing list. Until a major feature is not agreed on by either the affected area's maintainer or the Qt Creator maintainer, please do not put it on the roadmap. The roadmap is not a changelog. If you are interested in those, find the latest changelogs in the "git repo":http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-creator/qt-creator/blobs/2.8/dist/.
