Roadmap for Ginga
==================
This is a roadmap for Ginga development, which lays out
the long-term plans for this package.
*Note: As a caveat, this is a living document, and
will evolve as priorities grow and shift.*
Last updated: May 2019
Short-Term Goals
----------------
Things that might happen in the next release or two:
* Dropping Python 2 support (bug fixes to 2.x.y branches until end of 2019).
* Support ASDF and GWCS.
Mid-Term Goals
--------------
Things that might happen in 1-1.5 years:
* Improve vector types support (e.g., efficient rendering of many
objects of a single type).
Long-Term Goals
---------------
Things that are nice to have but do not have a specific
implementation timeline:
* Complete documentation overhaul with more user-friendly examples.
* Out-of-memory big data support.
* Better remote interface to reference viewer.
Completed Goals
---------------
Goals that were completed, in reverse chronological order:
* Last major release that is compatible with Python 2 (time frame: late
2018). Beginning with v3.x.y, Ginga will be Python 3 compatible only.
* Convert ``main`` to be Python 3.5-compatible (and above) only
(time frame: early 2019).
* Python 3.7 support.
