Roadmap for Octopus 2.0 and beyond

In a blog post from August 2013, Paul Stovell, the founder and CEO of Octopus, announced the upcoming release of Octopus 2.0, highlighting the significant architectural changes and improvements over its predecessor. The update promises enhanced server/agent communications with support for Mono, a robust RESTful API, and a fully API-dependent user interface, allowing for greater flexibility and extensibility in automated deployments. While initial plans included a major overhaul with numerous new features, the focus shifted to stabilizing and polishing the core changes before release, with plans for subsequent iterative updates. Stovell emphasizes the importance of releasing the software into the hands of users to facilitate further improvements and outlines the roadmap for future developments through Trello boards.
