Notes

  • This backlog is maintained in docs/internal/ because it contains development plans not intended for public consumption
  • Tasks should be moved to GitLab Issues when ready for implementation
  • Progress should be tracked in GitLab Milestones
  • Many tasks may already be partially implemented - requires investigation
