[aerogear-dev] AeroGear.org - a first thought on changing our roadmap docs

Mon Dec 15 09:21:28 EST 2014

My current thought is, that on https://aerogear.org/docs/planning/ we
should not just have link. Straight on the page I'd like to list the next
planed features:
*OAuth2
* Sync
*Offline

Each item has a bit of details.

and underneath these features, I'd like to place links to the JIRAs of the
different modules, like Security, Cordova etc. Basically like it is today
(with the little different of pointing to JIRA, instead of our own roadmap
docs, where possible). Let me PR this...

That is just a first step. more to come soon :)
