Alpha 6 Detailed Work Plan

This is a stake in the ground for the Alpha6 plan. We expect this to shift somewhat as we complete Alpha4 and Alpha5 but this is the result of the initial stickie planning. We are trying to minimize all new feature development for Alpha6 to focus on bugs, stability and particularly performance. As of now, alpha6 is our Preview release.

• Context menus - the ones we need for Beta (MAYBE) Bug#3047, Bug#4638
