TYPO3 Roadmap
Currently we have two big development branches for TYPO3: version 4.x and version 5.x. The development of both branches is done in parallel, each with a dedicated team (some developers are part of both the v4 and the v5 team).
During an important meeting, all present core team members jointly worked out the Berlin Manifesto which states the intention of the core team for the upcoming versions of TYPO3.
