Hello ArchivesSpace members,

We are pleased to share an updated ArchivesSpace Technology and Development 
Roadmap.  It is also available on the ArchivesSpace wiki at:
https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ADC/Road+Map

The roadmap is a planning and communication tool to help the community know 
what to expect in terms of future development work and aid in planning for 
upcoming releases and upgrades.   As we continue to develop the roadmap, this 
updated version includes:


*         tying activities to JIRA tickets

*         including the requirements portion of the process (we need 
close-to-finalized requirements before development can be scheduled)

*         outlining the responsible party as a way to highlight and encourage 
community involvement

*         a detailed overview for several releases on the first tab, then 
separate tabs to highlight features of individual releases

Additionally, we have heard from a number of people who want their institutions 
to get more involved in developing for ArchivesSpace. We have indicated in the 
roadmap features for which we are actively seeking developers from the 
community willing to take responsibility for implementing them in the code. 
These are noted with "Seeking community developer/s" in the Responsibility 
column. We believe that these pieces are small and bounded enough to make them 
reasonable to implement this way and that they provide an excellent opportunity 
for those who are interested to improve the ArchivesSpace application for the 
community overall. Please get in touch with Laney and Christine if you'd like 
to discuss this kind of involvement with development.

The timelines and priorities reflect:

*         Major feature priorities were based on a combination of the results 
of the 2016 prioritization member survey, the availability of finalized 
specifications, and community input including discussion on the Users Group 
listserv

*         Refactoring prioritization was based on HM's analysis of the code

*         Bug fixes and feature enhancements prioritized by the Development 
Prioritization Subteam

We appreciate the helpful feedback and suggestions provided from Gordon Daines, 
Sally Vermaaten, Jason Loeffler, HM and Technical Advisory Council and User 
Advisory Council members.

We want to continue to provide transparency and visibility for development 
planning and continue to explore ways to further involve the community in the 
roadmap process. Please share any suggestions you have with us.

Please feel free to share your feedback with us at

All best,
Christine
