| # containerd roadmap |
| |
| containerd uses the issues and milestones to define its roadmap. |
| `ROADMAP.md` files are common in open source projects, but we find they quickly become out of date. |
| We opt for an issues and milestone approach that our maintainers and community can keep up-to-date as work is added and completed. |
| |
| ## Issues |
| |
| Issues tagged with the `roadmap` label are high level roadmap items. |
| They are tasks and/or features that the containerd community wants completed. |
| |
| Smaller issues and pull requests can reference back to the main roadmap issue that is tagged to help detail progress towards the overall goal. |
| |
| ## Milestones |
| |
| Milestones define when an issue, pull request, and/or roadmap item is to be completed. |
| Issues are the what, milestones are the when. |
| Development is complex therefore roadmap items can move between milestones depending on the remaining development and testing required to release a change. |
| |
