Version Number Shifting
- Details
After feedback from the community the PLT agreed at their meeting on Sunday 1st May 2016 to release the improvements to the Joomla Update Component, containing a reinstall button and reinstating the ability to update Joomla via file upload, as soon as possible.
With our versioning policy (available at https://developer.joomla.org/news/586-joomla-development-strategy.html) this means that we must make a minor release. As a result rather than making a 3.5.2 release we will instead make a 3.6.0 release.
The features that originally were planned to ship with 3.6 (for example the refactored routing system and the custom fields component) will now be made in a 3.7 release. The timescale for the 3.7 release will be roughly unchanged and will still be led by Chris Davenport.
The full PLT minutes for this meeting will be published very soon in the usual reports section on the volunteer portal and will contain the planned release dates for 3.6.

The Joomla UX team is conducting research to improve future versions of Joomla and we want your feedback!
The goal of this survey is to provide a general overview of Joomla users and usage. The feedback we receive will shape the direction of our process and our future research efforts. The survey is very short and simple, it should only take a minute or two of your time. The more feedback we get the more we can help our users. Please share this survey with your local Joomla communities and spread the word.
