We're still discussing the roadmap for 1.3, but let's try to keep it reasonable 
in scope: we currently have the following "hot" topics:

* repository signing (server-side design and infrastructure, client-side 
validation ; very likely following TUF)

* package files tracking / package sandboxing

* Windows documentation / support

* a plugin architecture for OPAM extensions

Three of these seem to me like the maximum that could be reasonably put in the 
single release (and one or two may actually be more reasonable). I am willing 
to work on all of these and don't want to leave anyone behind, but there is so 
much one can do in a given time. On the other hand, I may be more comfortable 
separating an already coded part of OPAM into a plugin rather than designing a 
plugin mechanism more abstractly.

Yes, this is a good start, and I already added some notes there.

Cheers,
