Roadmap
For a complete history of NAV, see HistoryOfNAV. The first official open source version of NAV was NAV 3.0.
Where is NAV going?
NAV has a long history and a lot of code to maintain. Our current strategy is this:
- Let there be no doubt; our focus is on network management
- NAV's key strength is on detecting network topology, tracking machines and visualizing the network.
- We will focus on supporting commonly deployed network equipment.
- Better wireless support is on our roadmap
- Reducing complexity is important, both in terms of installing and using NAV.
- We will stop developing (but bug fix) our service monitor. Other tools, i.e. Hobbit, do this better.
Roadmap
The table below an overview of NAV releases after NAV 3.0. From NAV 3.4 we have used Launchpad and more details and better overview can be found there.
The table below only lists the feature releases after NAV 3.5, not the bugfix releases (again see launchpad for these details).
