Folks, 1.3 is shaping up to be an exciting one. By moving the release date we're going to be able to accomplish more great accessibility fixes, get great demos into the demo portal, and ship a very exciting Infusion package builder for a customized experience.
The list is long, but have a look at the planning page in the wiki for the specifics: http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Infusion+1.3+-+1.5+Roadmap This page is a great place to keep looking as we flesh out 1.4 and 1.5. Notice Floe Project deliverables are folding into the Infusion releases -- moving the components and framework forward while solving for inclusive learning. This page will grow as we move forward...
