This document defines a high level roadmap for BOB development and upcoming releases. The features and themes included in each milestone are optimistic in the sense that many do not have clear owners yet. Community and contributor involvement is vital for successfully implementing all desired items for each release. We hope that the items listed below will inspire further engagement from the community to keep Rook progressing and shipping exciting and valuable features.
