About this roadmap, a disclaimer
This is roadmap is intended for use as a guideline, for information purposes only, and is subject to chnage at any time without notice. As JCE is developed using an Agile development methodology, any one of the milestones, features, release periods or versions could change from one week to the next. This roadmap does not indicate that any of the proposed features are anything more than theoretical, and there listing here does not imply that any code has been written, released or in any other way available.
Version Convention
JCE release versioning is almost identical in structure to that of Joomla! release versioning, although exact number may differ, and follows a numerical convention comprised of three numbers: Major, Minor and Maintenance. The version is presented in the major.minor[.maintenance] format.
Major Release Number (X.1.1)
An increment of the major number generally indicates a major rework or rewrite of the code base.
May be completely incompatible with prior major releases.
Minor Release Number (1.X.1)
An increment of the minor number usually indicates a significant change to functionality or architecture.
Moderate to high level of backward compatibility with previous minor increments.
Maintenance Release Number (1.1.X)
An increment of the maintenance number usually indicates bug fixing within the minor release and possibly small enhancements and limited new features.
Fully backward compatible with previous maintenance increments.
It is assumed, for JCE versions 1.5.x to 1.6.x, that all major and minor version numbers apply equally to both the Administartion Component and Editor Plugin.
