FYI: I'm abandoning the even/odd release numbering scheme in favor of using preview releases. Going forward the master branch will use the following release numbering: * 0.11.0.alpha.N.shortsha (Not tagged) * 0.11.0.beta.N (tagged, new features expected) * 0.11.0.rc.N (tagged, no new features expected) MUST: * A proper welcome page for blueprint projects (or delete it) * Rails Integration NICE: * some extension commands * Better help for commands and patterns * Color Palette extraction and management commands v0.11 ===== Planned Release Date: Aug 2, 2010 This is a quick iteration release. The focus on turning out even better documentation and some stylesheet updates and enhancements that take better advantage of the Sass 3 features. ### Docs (can be done on stable) * Improve the design * Better tutorials and getting started guides. * Terminal for Designers * Better examples & example navigation * Contribution guide: * Compass stylesheets * Compass ruby code * Documentation patches * SCSS Style Guide * Bundler 1.0 support * Upgrade nanoc * Better search experience * Search mixins and constants and code fragments that might use those. * Awesome homepage that is better integrated with the docs. * HTML5 the docs so they can run locally in offline mode. ### Compass Core * Updates as necessary to the CSS3 module as the spec process develops. * Typography module ### Blueprint * Provide an option to use @extend in the blueprint grid ### Rails * Fully integrated support of Rails 3 ### Other * Consider adding app integration with: Node.js, Django, Drupal, Wordpress (Wherever opinionated layouts exist). Also, try to make one of these a plugin to test out the concept. * clean up all the argument names in preparation for keyword argument support from sass. 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. ### GUI Prerelease 1 * Concept brainstorming * mockups * How can compass gui and sass gui interoperate or plug in. ### GUI Prerelease 2 Beta release as a separate install. ### GUI Prerelease 3 * Iterate based on feedback. * Integrate with a Sass GUI. * Embed the docs ### One-click Installers Install compass and sass with one click * Windows (Only if someone else wants to build and maintain it.) * Mac (.dmg + drag & drop app or installer) * Linux (Get distro packages going and in place for the 1.0 release)
