At line 5 added 8 lines.

!Milestone 1

* Maven 2 integration

* Remove XDoclet, putting generated files into source tree

* Get all flavors (WARs) deployed and running on Tomcat and Jetty Maven Plugin

* Spring 2.0: Upgrade XML to XSDs, annotations where appropriate

* Upgrade WebWork to Struts 2

!Milestone 2

At line 6 changed 1 line.

* Maven 2 integration while (hopefully) continuing to support Ant. Ideally, we could use Maven to generate Ant files. However, the Maven Ant Plugin has [quite a few issues|http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&mode=hide&sorter/order=DESC&sorter/field=priority&resolution=-1&pid=11124&fixfor=-1] that need to be fixed first.

* Archetypes for creating new AppFuse projects

!Milestone 3

* Integrate XFire by default

* Code Generation/AppGen - hopefully with the [AppFuse Maven Plugin|http://mojo.codehaus.org/appfuse-maven-plugin/]

!2.0 Nice to haves

* TestNG replacing JUnit

* Hibernate Validation Annotations (hard part is hooking it into the web frameworks)

* Tomcat Plugin for Maven (that operates like Jetty's plugin)

* JPA Support

At line 8 removed 4 lines.

* Replace Struts with Struts Action 2 (a.k.a. WebWork) and remove extras/webwork.

* Support for using AppFuse as a library.

* Support for creating a new project using AppFuse as an archetype (from Maven).

* Replace AppGen with a solution that's not based on XDoclet. Hopefully annotations can be read and used, possibly using something like <a href="https://greenbox.dev.java.net/">Greenbox</a>.

At line 31 added 4 lines.

!!AppFuse 2.2

* Convention over configuration, no XML modifications needed when adding new files

* Plugin API so all "features" can be added/removed via plugins

At line 18 changed 3 lines.

* (Possibly) Add a Swing client that can talk to at least one of the above frameworks (if not all).

* (Possibly) Add a [Laszlo|http://laszlosystems.com] front-end.

* (Possibly) Add Wicket as a supported web framework.

* (Possibly) Add a Swing/RCP, Laszlo and/or J2ME front-end

* (Possibly) Add Wicket and Stripes as supported web frameworks

At line 22 changed 1 line.
