<p>This is a good place though to answer the following FAQ:</p>
</div>
</div>
<div align="left">
Q. When is the next release coming out?<br /><br />
A. This question is discussed on the freecol-developers mailing list. Anyone who wants a detailed understanding of the current issues in FreeCol is more than welcome to subscribe (see <a href="community.html" title="here">/community.html)</a>. The list is low volume, and nicely illustrates that the real answer to this question is almost always `No one knows'.<br /><br />
Q. No, really, surely you have some sort of plan/roadmap/release schedule?<br /><br />
A. Not really. FreeCol is developed for fun, by a small group of volunteer contributors, at least some of which find the idea of a formal release schedule in a small volunteer project laughably impractical and/or not fun.<br /><br />
Q. Well, alright, can you at least tell us what will be in the next release?<br /><br />
<ul>
<li>A1. Bug fixes.</li>
<li>A2. Read the mailing list and you will know what we have been discussing.</li>
<li>A3. Follow freecol-commits and you will know what we have actually done.</li>
<li>A4. `Whatever catches the various developer's interest'<br /></li>
</ul>
