Plans for future versions of the DITA Open Toolkit

The latest version of the DITA-OT 1.5.2, which was released December 10, 2010.

Development of new releases takes place using an Agile development process, with several iterations that will accumulate new items until we have enough for a release. Each iteration ends with a Milestone build that is available for testing.

The next version of the DITA-OT will be version 1.5.3, planned for mid-year 2011. See DITA-OT Release 1.5.3 for more details.

New items for consideration should be submitted to the project page at SourceForge. Any open item on the SourceForge bug tracker, patch tracker, or feature tracker is a candidate for a future release.

• Bug tracker: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=132728&atid=725074
• RFE tracker: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=132728&atid=725077
• Patch tracker: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=132728&atid=725076

As development begins on any significant item, a design document should be created here for tracking and discussion. Design documents should use the DITA Open Toolkit Design Document Template.
