Rather than a project plan, this page is, at the moment, a place to collect ideas about potential new features. This will be turned into an actual project plan for the milestones to come once the team will have agreed on the list.

This release will have 6 sprints (15 days each).

Misc

• Investigate if it'd be possible to have a Mihini lite engine implemented in pure Lua and/or Java that could be hosted in the IDE thus allowing really fast prototyping (provided no access to system libraries etc. is done in the user code)
• Run Mihini on an Open Hardware platform
• Provide a developer kit to get started with Mihini very quick
