Roadmap
The XWiki development process uses JIRA for listing all tasks to be implemented and all bugs to be fixed.
You'll find there the dates and versions planned for issues to be fixed and hence the XWiki roadmaps. There's also a release calendar listing all known dates for future releases. Please understand that these dates are often tentative since XWiki's development is open source and lots of committers/contributors are working in their free time on XWiki.
If you're interested to help out check the contributing page.
We're releasing several top level projects together and as such we've decided to have the same Roadmap page for all of them. Thus this page contains the roadmap for the following projects: XWiki Commons, XWiki Rendering, XWiki Platform and XWiki Enterprise.
General goals for all releases:
- More tests
- Better javadoc
- More documentation on xwiki.org
- Code cleanup/refactoring
Already implemented roadmaps can be found in the archives.
Note that all planned release dates are also entered in the Calendar on JIRA.

This is a stabilization releases with the following priorities:
- Work on all existing Nested Spaces/Nested Pages issues and reduce this list to zero
- Work on making well-known/standard Extensions work well with Nested spaces/Nested Pages. For example:
- File Manager
- Meeting Manager
- Forum
- Calendar
- Totem
- Tour
- Task Manager
- Idea
- A second priority is to finish the polishing of "Improve upgrade tools - Improve DW" as much as possible since it was introduced in 7.x.
- More generally we need to fix/polish features that have been introduced in this cycle (7.x).
- BFDs
