Roadmap: Summary and next steps

The first roadmap meeting on May 8th allows us to present a draft roadmap for Opencast for the first time in a long time. Or rather: A list of the most relevant projects, ongoing, upcoming as well as planned – and some ideas without an exact plan.

Thanks to everyone who communicated their ideas and projects to the project board. Which is where you find all the contributions, the most important ones though in a nutshell:

Projects, ongoing or upcoming

  1. JWT, potentially interesting for all external applications
  2. Improve event data model of Opencast
  3. ILIAS redesigning their PageComponent-Plugin,
  4. Interactive videos in Opencast
  5. Tobira: Enable series in Tobira (release v3.3 coming end of May)

(Further) Funding required

  1. Chapter editor
  2. Paella Player integration into Moodle (and maybe other LMS)
  3. Extended Capture Agent API

Ideas

  1. Improve live streaming and scheduling

Feel free to contact owners and/or assignees for details or contributions. Organisers David and Olaf will follow up on some of the issues discussed and prepare the next meeting on September 11th to turn that list into an actual roadmap towards 2026.

If you want to re-visit the meeting, the recording is online with the first couple of minutes missing.

PS: We would appreciate if you would add information according to the template (size of the project, timeline, funding situation etc.) to your issues.
