The development schedule displays a list of features and issues that are currently being worked on or are under consideration for future development. This list is intended to let our clients know what's coming up, what's being worked on, and where Modular Merchant is going.
The items on this page are listed in order of priority from top to bottom. A link is also provided to previous release notes, so that you can see what items have already been completed and released.
