Road map for 2020 Jan 30, 2020

This year's road map will be concerned with lowering the barriers of entry of using Genode and Sculpt OS.

For our community, commercial Genode users, and us developers alike, it is important to know where Genode is heading. At each turn of the year, we jointly draft a rough plan for the upcoming 12 months. After having kicked off the public discussion on our mailing list end of December and collecting ideas over the following 3 weeks, we condensed the ideas in the form of our official road map:

Our primary ambition will be the removal of the hurdles faced by aspiring developers and users. We will approach this goal in four ways: Making Sculpt OS more user friendly, reinforcing trust in Genode by fostering the framework's high quality, making the tooling around Genode a joy to use, and by presenting tangible use cases.

Besides this overall theme, we plan to continue our commitment to the NXP i.MX SoC family and extend the cultivation of Ada/SPARK within (and on top of) Genode.
