Our Plans

Data Curator is funded by the Queensland Government. Releases v0.1.0 to v0.8.0 created a base product that was delivered in December 2017.

With a support agreement in place, the code will be signed and tagged v1.0.0. The support agreement will address issues in the support milestone that have been labelled approved.

Issues that may be addressed in the next series of sprints leading up to v2.0.0 are held in the v1.x.x milestone. These will be allocated across releases v1.1.0 to v1.9.0 early in 2018. v2.0.0 is expected to be complete in mid-2018.

Issues we don't plan to address are in the backlog. Contributions to address these issues are very welcome

Sequencing

Some thoughts on ordering releases. Note:

  • effort has not been estimated so some releases may be too big or small
  • two releases have external dependencies ⚠️ and if these cannot be coordinated then other release candidates may be considered
  • the answers to some questions may influence scope
