Revision as of 13:10, 14 September 2020

For the release of Mahara 20.10, the October 2020 release, a number of features were identified to support the growth of Mahara. This list may be added to throughout the release cycle, and it will be updated once Mahara 20.10 has been released.

Usability improvements
to simplify the user interface, keep up with the changing world of how people interact with web applications and thus expect from Mahara.

New feature development
to offer tools to learners that they need to create the portfolios they want or are required to set up.

Technical updates
to make use of new libraries that are used and keep current with technology that is includedor update existing technical components. That also supports the usability of the site.

Issue resolution
to fix problems that people have come across.

 
Infrastructure updates
to facilitate the smooth running of the project, the server infrastructure that hosts community sites used for conversations with people using or planning to use Mahara and developers.
  • Investigate the move from Launchpad to GitLab for wishlist and bug tracking
