3 Heres a very simplified roadmap for Conky. By no means does this mean any of this stuff will actually get implemented.
5 1.3.0 - probably end of august/beginning of sept
9 after 1.3.0 only maintenance releases will follow, no new features for the 1.x series
11 2.0.0 - hopefully by christmas at the latest
12 * rewrite core of Conky in C++
13 * implement new features like a cairo backend, network transparency, and whatever else
