# roadmap
Versions 1.2 – 1.5 will be incremetal improvements. By version 1.5 we want to have the following in place:

- a stable architecture for extensions and plug-ins
- generated HTML to conform to W3C XHTML standard
- ‘mail to a friend’ tool
- opaque data structures with a documented API
- cleaner code, and a documented set of functions, classes and methods that third-party programmers can use (and trust)
- easier navigation, interface improvements and a general clean up in the administration

Version 2.0 plans to offer the possibility to use a database as the backend, rather than the current flat file system.
