Waku Roadmap 2024 Gantt Chart
Status short term work only:
- reliability for 1:1 chat and communities
- up to 100 communities
Colour legend:
- Red: engineering work to deliver the feature.
- Other: test and telemetry work to ensure quality
Anything prefixed TBC is pending confirmation of estimate with the team.
Completion dates are delivery of the code + dogfooding.
If too hard to read, try to see this fine in GitHub.
