v3 Spec (1st draft)

Status: open project (no release date yet, apologies)

First off, a big thanks to everyone who has contributed ideas to the next major version of OIO. There’s been a great response and a multitude of ideas.

I started off writing out a list of features for v3 as a result of the ideas that had been coming in, but instead decided to turn it all into a mindmap (something a bit different). I’ve been through all the ideas listed and put the outline of the vast majority of them into the map:

It should all be quite self explanatory. The details have been left out in favour of producing an easy to digest overview, and the core features that are already in v2 haven’t been included (again for the sake of compactness).

It’s worth noting that the “extension ideas” are things that I feel could certainly be useful, but won’t necessarily things focused on right away. I’ll also be releasing a developer zone with v3, where you’ll be able to request a custom addon from other developers (not just me), which might also be a good fit for such extras.

PS. the admin suggestions are on the right hand side. They were too large to fit into the main sphere.
