<p style="margin-top:25px;">
	<span style="font-weight:bold;">Roadmap and Prioritization</span> (AM)
</p>

	<ul>
		<li>
			Goals for Version 4
			<ul>
				<li>
					Ease of use and familiarity for developers (both user and maintainer) new to the project
				</li>
				<li>
					Major release is an opportunity to reset, rebase, reconsider:
					<ul>
						<li>
							Compilers/platforms/dependencies, buildsystem, documentation format
						</li>
						<li>
							APIs and code generation strategies
						</li>
						<li>
							Repository structure
						</li>
						<li>
							Update to RTPS as default for discovery and transport
						</li>
						<li>
							Removal of older, less-maintained, superseded features
						</li>					
					</ul>
				</li>
			</ul>
		</li>
		<li>
			Priorities and Tradeoffs
			<ul>
				<li>
					Required vs. optional features and dependencies (Security, JSON)
				</li>
				<li>
					Single git repo or multiple repos (with submodules or scripts)
					<ul>
						<li>
							Java Bindings, Bench, Wireshark Dissector, Shapes Demo, Modeling SDK, FACE Transport Services
						</li>
					</ul>
				</li>
				<li>
					Migration path for users of 3.x
				</li>
				<li>
					Let us know how you're configuring OpenDDS
				</li>
			</ul>
		</li>
	</ul>

<p style="margin-top:25px;">
