GitHub user hansva edited a discussion: 2.17 Roadmap and goals

Hi All,

As the project is growing, I think we are at a point where we might want to 
introduce a bit more structure in our future releases.
I'm personally a big fan of working on specific topics and bundling our 
resources to make as much as possible happen.

2.16 will be released shortly. This release will be packed with a lot of bug 
fixes and some exciting new features.

I would like to use this moment to look at what we can focus on for our 2.17 
release.
>From what I have heard and seen from our fellow contributors, I feel that 2.17 
>will be a UI focused release.

We have a set of already active tickets:
- https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/5879 (new project/git branch selection)
- https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/5927 (new lay-out on logging)

Ideas or things contributors are working on that I have heard:
- Align our file input dialogs
- Merge file browser + data orchestration perspective
- Improve our options dialog
- Give the perspective side buttons a more modern look
- See if we can add SWTBot for UI testing
- Writing out guidelines and developer documentation for UI related activities

Let me know what you think about focusing on a specific area for each release. 
And what changes/features you think would help the project.

Cheers,
Hans
