Hello, everyone, With the 1.5.5 release having gone out yesterday (great work, everyone!), I thought maybe we could start heading in the direction of the 1.6.0 release, which has a lot of features and a lot of interest from folks in getting several of those features released. The release currently has 95 Jira issues associated with it - I'll not list them, here, but here's are a couple of links to the lists of features currently tagged for the release:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/GUACAMOLE/versions/12351447 https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%2012319620%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%2012351447%20ORDER%20BY%20key%20DESC%2C%20priority%20DESC Aside from the ones already tagged for the 1.6.0 release, below is a list of items that might be worth investigating to see if we can close some of them out quickly enough to get into a 1.6.0 release in the coming...weeks, maybe couple of months?
