This is the current development plan of WebIssues. Note that it is very rough and constantly changing depending on the importance and effort required to implement the particular features. Use the Bugs & Requests forum to suggest new features that you would like to be implemented and to report bugs.

At the moment the third stage is completed and planning of the forth stage has started. The approximate date of finishing that stage is planned for the end of 2008, but it depends on the available manpower.
