== Release Schedule for 2.4.x releases ==
 
  
We don't have an actual schedule. We only know we plan for a stable 2.4.x release every 3-6 weeks in order to make available the bugfixes and translation updates.

== Goals for 4.0 ==

Goals for 4.0:
 +
* Rewrite engine to remove dependencies on GLib/GObject using C++
 +
* Migrate from QofQuery to SQL Query
 +
* Make KVP a backend implementation detail; no direct KVP access except in the backends
 +
* Limit use of Guile to reports and F::Q; all other main application code should be C or C++.
