I might be wrong but I think the answer is there isn't a roadmap and concrete dates can't really exist when its a subjective of when the code has reached the milestone (there are no artificial constraints of customer deadlines to force a particular release date). What the more important question seems to be is what is the philosophy on how drools releases are performed? Who makes the decision and on what basis is it being made on. (with the sub question of does this work for the community). There seems to be a number of different philosophies that different open source projects use on determine releases: 1. Every new feature is a release - release numbers are cheap and it allows features and bug fixes to get out quicker requiring less time spent on the list recommending people try trunk. 2. Group features up but still release regular and often. Has most of the advantages of above but better if more manual testing needs to be done for a release. 3. Have fixed iterations with clear commit and stabalization/test cycles. Easier for users to understand when the next release will be available and still have confidence in the stability and reliability of it. 4. Have a roadmap with clearly defined feature sets for each particular release. Release when those features have proved stable - ideally with a clear criteria of when that occurs. 5. Like 4 but the roadmap is just in the project leaders head with little visibility to the user about what is happening when or why. So the question is which of these does Drools fit into and which would the community like it to fit into?
