This document attempts to explains the development goals for the Phoenix project and to map those goals against Milestone binary releases. It is not intended to be a definitive release schedule for users of Phoenix binaries but rather a development roadmap and calendar to help keep the Phoenix hackers all on the same page.
We use Bugzilla to track the features and bug fixes that should happen before a milestone is released so a query for Phoenix bugs targeted at a particular milestone should give you an idea about what we expect to be fixed by that milestone.
Because we're working from the stable base provided by the mature Mozilla trunk we expect to move through these milestone releases at a fairly quick pace. That being said, these dates are subject to change. So if your business depends on the Phoenix milestone plan you are encouraged to contact asa@mozilla.org directly for more information.
Dates given are just targets. Actual release will probably occur sometime during the week of the given day.
Initial release introducing customizable toolbars, simple new interface, performance and size improvements, and lots of destruction.
Improvements to toolbar customization, inline web form autocomplete, sidebar, extensions management, making preferences work (somewhat), more size improvements and bug fixing.
A few more features, global Go menu, improvements to pop-up blocking, tabbed browsing improvements, redesign of bookmark groups, extensions uninstall (hopefully), more speed and size improvements and lots of bug fixing.
Shifting from features to bug fixing and polish. Plans to leverage the Mozilla 1.2 stability push to make Phoenix rock solid.
Polish and cleanup.
