I looked at the work items and the status of Web services API is Proposed, not Active.

How can we know which items will be included in 2.00? Thanks.

Hi! I'm wondering the same thing. If web services will be included in the 2.0 release in My/June then that's great! We really need web services to allow us to expand our inventory before the big rush this summer. If it won't be included then we need to look into other possibilities.

I'm confused because the only thing scheduled on codeplex for v2.0 is the move to mvc. If web services are included, why isn't it documented?

It's going to be a totally different framework and ported across to the new version under mvc as understand.
I mean im not sure but I don't think there will be an automatic like upgrade path for code we have ?
(maybe the database data can be transfered and can be converted over to new format)

But anyone with any bits and pieces that they have added will need to be re-integrated with this new base.  

So I can expect that the list of what is to do will change and become smaller becasue at this point the reality is that it all has to be done again. Well at least tested and debug - if not process and business logic changes as well. And so there is only so much time.

When the new system hits the decks I think it may take some time and planning for any one wishing to upgrade their current site. I might be wrong but 1.9 is the end for line for this version and type of ways of dong things. A lot will be new under mvc. not that I have ever use the sucker myself. Just reading between the lines.

So there will be a bit of a beta and test phase involving community - not sure ?
When would be actually ready to run in production (maybe a couple of months test and confirm) ?

Go Andrei cut that code - everyone is waiting !!!!! (Just joking - I have a developed version of 1.7/8 and so I mean I won't be making that 1.9, maybe not ever 2.0 (will depend on complexities) I mean it works now - why change in the short term just for fun. It's a production site and uptime is important - makes the money.

Anyway look forward to see what great things the team will come up with this time

Thanks for your input Yidna! But I guess my main question is one that is rather simple and probably a newbie question, so forgive my ignorance.

Is everything on the roadmap going to be part of the v2.0 release or is it just going to be the upgrade to the MVC platform? From the indications of this thread it sounds like more is included than just the move to MVC. I need to know for sure if that is the case so that I can plan accordingly.


Thanks!

Sorry, but the web services won't be in 2.0

I'm thinking 2.1
