<h2>Roadmap</h2>
<!-- ******************************************************************** -->
<h3>The Present</h3>
<p>For information about near-term upcoming releases, please see the
<a href="/project_status.html">project status</a> page.</p>
<h3>The Future</h3>
<p>This list is a rough prioritization of planned feature additions,
based on an ever-changing consensus of the Subversion developer
community. Because this is a volunteer open-source project, it's hard
to predict exact dates or timetables for these new features. At most,
we can express dependencies and predict the order in which things will
be worked on. The best way to track development is to <a
href="/servlets/ProjectMailingListList">subscribe</a> to the
developer's mailing list.</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Subversion 1.2 Goals:</b>
<ul>
<li>optional locking (reserved checkouts).</li>

</ul>
