# 1.14 19-May-2025 nia

doc: Update roadmaps for 2025.

- Support for arm64 is pretty advanced now and not the biggest problem
with supporting phone hardware. (yay, progress!)
- ZFS was updated to be based on FreeBSD's version, and "works", but
more stabilization, optimization, and updating is always needed.
- NVME's been supported for several major releases now, but more
optimization work is always needed.
- Our scheduler is now topology-aware (yay, progress!)
- Mention aarch64 support in nvmm.

# 1.13 13-Jan-2017 dholland

branches: 1.13.24;
Update roadmaps, unilaterally, because most of these hadn't been touched
since the pre-6.0 period and nobody else has been doing the work. There's
a lot of things whose current state I don't know; please fill in. Also the
stuff I've added is necessarily biased towards projects I think about, so
please add more.


# 1.12 13-Jan-2017 dholland

Remove items that were in -6.
