1.4.0 roadmap.
Here are the 29 issues that have been fixed/resolved/closed:

We have very important issues that has been resolved since 1.3.0.
Especially DIRSTUDIO-463, which can cause thousands of unwanted requests,
slowing a lot the browser, but also comprehension improvements of the UI.
We also introduced new features like the DIT Quick Search (DIRSTUDIO-335)
or an improved GeneralizedTime Value Editor (DIRSTUDIO-449)
We also have those other 29 open/in progress/reopened issues:

the browser (N = number of ref values)
DIRSTUDIO-359 - Improve DSML parser classes
DIRSTUDIO-155 - Logging capabilities needed
DIRSTUDIO-150 - Improve error handling
Internationalization is almost done. We now have Studio running in English,
German and French. A general review is now needed for the German and the
French translation before closing the related issues
(DIRSTUDIO-458, DIRSTUDIO-39).
The move to the latest Eclipse dependencies (version 3.4.2) is currently in
progress and should be fixed by the end of this week.
>From the list above, I think we can still easily and quickly fix a few
simple issues (thinking about DIRSTUDIO-412
, DIRSTUDIO-411, DIRSTUDIO-466, DIRSTUDIO-442, etc.).
But, there are also issues requiring more refactoring and time.
The latest version of Apache Directory Studio (1.3.0) has been released on
November 24th 2008, 4 months ago.
We've had some discussion, here at ApacheCon, and we think it's time to
think at releasing the version 1.4.0 version very soon.
It could be ready next week.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Pierre-Arnaud

You were faster than me on the issue with the selection of a newly created
folder. ;)

Hi guys,
Last week, at ApacheCon, Stefan and I have re-worked the roadmap and fixed
some issues.
As up today, there's only one remaining opened issue, DIRSTUDIO-397 -
Request for multi-language GUI.
This issue is our internalization of the UI strings of the plugins, which is
almost done and only needs a review and/or slight modifications.
So, I think we should able to cast a vote tomorrow evening.
Any thoughts?
Regards,
Pierre-Arnaud

Hi Pierre-Arnaud,
many thanks for the report.
I 100% agree with you that we should release a 1.4.0 very soon. I'm fine
with postponing the remaining issues.
