Hello Ed, +1 on all you mentioned!
I would propose additional point which you have kind of mention it already on item related to API Swagger, but just as emphasize - APIs related issues/Enhancements that has been discovered by Mobile or Web client application side. This is so, because we might take longer in addressing issues already known from client application side; buy just because of missing visibility; So having this branch in Wiki page will remind us.

Taking up Phil's suggestion, let's begin the discussion on this new thread for planning what should goi into Apache Fineract 1.2. To assist in that I've set up a wiki page at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT/1.2.0+-+Apache+Fineract Based on what I know others have been working on, here's my take on some of the work that could be included in the release. - GSIM/GLIM Work from Nikhil as part of GSOC - Swagger APIs work done by Sanyam and Chirag - Apache Fineract tasks completed by GCI students. - Changes contributed by Partners including: - BOWPI Enhancements - Stellar/Fineract integration - Bug Fixes and Minor Enhancements. - PRs from the backlog Let's drive this discussion forward and then a have a synchronous meeting later to hammer out details.
