<p>This page is our roadmp for future features and releases.</p>

<h2>The new GPSD protocol</h2>

<p>2.90 has shipped, and with it the redesign of GPSD's wire protocol.
While this brings many benefits (including, immediately, the ability
to interpret and report on the output of marine AIS receivers) it
poses some significant deployment challenges as well.</p>

<p>Over the next few releases we're going to be preoccupied with 
<a href="protocol-transition.html">managing the transition to the
new protocol.</a>. See that document is our tentative release schedule:</p>

<p>For more on specific tasks planned for upcoming releases, see our
<a href="TODO">file</a>.</p>

<h2>Changing hosting sites</h2>

<p>We're presently (March 2010) hosted at <a
href="http://developer.berlios.de">berlios.de</a>, but find that it
has become extremely flaky of late (logins failing due to broken SSL
certs is the most recent symptom).  We plan to change sitessomewtime
in 2010.</p>
