<!-- MN -->
<P>
The (draft) development roadmap describes ongoing and future development.


<DEFANGED_IMG SRC="../images/roadmap_graphic.jpg" alt="GRASS GIS development roadmap">

<P>
In more detail the (proposed) changes are described below. Various "TODOs"
indicate the need for more developers to participate. Please contact the
GRASS Development Team on the <a href=devel.php>developers mailing list</a>.

<P>
Version number scheme:
<ul>
 <li>first number: <b>major</b> release number
 <li>secondary number: <b>minor</b> release number (stable/development indicator)
 <li>third number: <b>revision</b>
</ul>

<P>
Using this scheme, version numbers have a very clear meaning:
<ul>
 <li>new revision == bugs have been fixed, go grab it and install it.
 <li>new minor == new features are available, source compatibility _and_ binary 
       compatibility for existing applications are garanteed <i>[not fully true for 
       GRASS 5.7 where old vector/sites maps have to be converted by 
       v.convert/v.in.sites.]</i>.
 <li>new major == beware! Old (ugly) libraries have been dropped. Database
     compatibility has been broken, you have to migrate your database to the
     new formats.
</ul>
It is intended to follow this scheme for upcoming GRASS releases.

<P>

Historical Notes</font></font></i></b></h2></center>

<font face="Arial,Helvetica">GRASS (Geographic Resources Analysis Support
System) GRASS has been under continuous development since 1982 and has
involved a large number of federal US agencies, universities, and private
companies. The core components of GRASS and the management of the integration
efforts into GRASS releases were accomplished by the U.S. Army - Construction
Engineering Research Laboratory (USA-CERL) in Champaign, Illinois. USA-CERL
completed its last release of GRASS as version 4.1 in 1992, and provided
five updates and patches to this release through 1995. USA-CERL also wrote
the core components of the GRASS 5.0 floating point version.</font>
