David H. DeWolf Craig Doremus Pluto Project Roadmap

Interested in getting involved? Looking for a place to start? This document is inteded to assist you in figuring out what to do.

Having recently graduated from the incubator, the first goal of our community is the release a binary version of the Pluto Container. This binary release will be based upon the initial Pluto contribution which was donated by IBM.

Several people have suggested a revolutionary approach to Pluto's implementation. The suggestion centers around the complexity of the current implementation and a desire to make Pluto more "container like". Pluto 1.1, a second generation implementation, is an attempt to do just that. See the Pluto 1.1 section of the online documentation for more details.
