-* some extension commands
+* 0.11.0.beta.N (tagged, new features expected)
-* Better help for commands and patterns
+* 0.11.0.rc.N (tagged, no new features expected)
 
+v0.11
+=====
+Planned Release Date: Aug 2, 2010

+even better documentation and some stylesheet updates and
+enhancements that take better advantage of the Sass 3 features.

+
+v0.12 
+=====
+
+This release depends on Sass 3.2 and is aimed at taking advantage of
+the new sass 3.2 feature set as well as really making the extensions
+system come alive. Since I don't foresee any deprecations in Sass 3.2,
+this will not be a coordinated release. Instead, this release will
+trail Sass 3.2 by a month or two.
+
+### Compass Core
+
+* Figure out what to do about multiple attribute properties like background.
+  Might require list and function support from sass.
+
+### Blueprint
+
+* If sass 3.2 is out with @function support, use that for grid
+  calculations, otherwise punt to 1.0.
+
+### Extensions
+
+* Extension registry on compass-style.org.
+* One step publishing via github + webhooks
+* Easy install via CLI
+* Local (per-user) extension repo with auto-discovery.
+* Video showing how easy it is to create, publish, and install an extension.
+
+
+v1.0 - Polaris
+==============
+
+### Blueprint
+
+* If the @extend version of the grid is full of win, make it the default.
+
+### Sassdoc
+
+Extract the compass documentation system into a stand-alone project.
+
+### Extensions
+
+* Build basic docs and host them for all extensions using sassdoc.
+* Support for selling extensions and taking a cut for umdf.org?
+
+### Project Tools
+
+* enable building project docs using the sassdoc tool.
+
+v2.0
+====
+
+Version 2 is all about making compass easier to use. Compass and Sass
+will have a GUI that makes it simple to manage your projects.
