 # Bazel Feature Roadmap
 
-Author: [The Bazel Team](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/bazel-discuss)
-
-This document describes the Bazel team's plans for introducing future
-system features. The document is divided into two main sections:
-
-*   *Near-term plans:* Features that the team is committed to supporting
-    for alpha and beta releases.
-*   *Tentative post-beta plans:* Features that the team is considering
-    supporting within one year of the beta release. The availability and
-    sequencing of features on this list will depend technical feasibility
-    and user demand.
-
-Note that this roadmap only includes features that the Bazel team itself
-intends to support. We anticipate that a number of other features will be
-added by code contributors.

-## Near-term Plans
-
-### <a name="alpha"></a>Alpha release (2015-03)
-
-This release is intended to
-
-*   give users access to a basic set of supported features
-*   allow potential code contributors to understand Bazel's capabilities and
-    architecture
-*   enable users to monitor the team's progress toward a beta release
-
-Alpha users will need to build Bazel from source; we will not provide binary
-releases until the beta. We will accept code contributions, but may need to
-reject or defer code contributions related to beta features still under
-development. Some features will be fully supported
-henceforward, others are still experimental or partially supported;
-see our [feature support document](support.html) for details.
-
-The following features/capabilities will be available in the alpha:
-
-*   Bazel runs on Linux and OS X
-*   Bazel builds itself on Linux and OS X
-*   Build rules target executables running on Linux and OS X
-*   Support for building and testing C++
-*   Support for building and testing Java
-*   Support for building Objective C
-*   Support for building Python
-*   Support for building iOS apps
-*   Documentation for supported build rules and features
-*   Online support for bug and feature requests
-*   A basic Bazel test suite in GitHub
-*   Support for referencing Java JAR dependencies from HTTP and Maven endpoints
-*   Support for referencing remote source repositories via HTTP
-*   Support for extensibility via an interpreted Python subset (Skylark)
-
-### <a name="beta"></a>Beta release (target date: 2015-07)
-
-The beta release will add support for additional languages and platform and
-various other fully supported features. In particular, the following
-features/capabilities will be available:
-
-*   Binary versions of Bazel for Linux and OS X
-*   The Bazel test suite runs on externally-visible continuous integration
-    infrastructure
-*   Support for referencing transitive sources via Maven
-*   Support for prefetching and caching remote dependencies
-*   Support for building Android apps
-*   Support for testing iOS apps
-*   Support for building and deploying Docker images
-
-## Tentative post-beta plans
-
-*   Binary releases of Bazel at least monthly
-*   Full support for build action sandboxing
-*   Support for testing Android apps
-*   Support for distributed caching of build artifacts
-*   All Bazel tests currently in Google's repository are ported to GitHub
-*   The external repository is primary
-*   Support for building and deploying AppEngine applications
-*   Support for testing mobile applications with
-    [Cloud Test Lab](https://developers.google.com/cloud-test-lab/).
-*   Support for the Go language
-*   Support for Javascript
-*   Android Studio interoperability

+## Feature list
+
+In the following table, each feature is associated with a corresponding
+milestone. The convention for the priorities are:
+
+*   P0 feature will block the milestone; we will delay the milestone date
+    until the feature is shipped.
+*   P1 feature can delay the milestone if the feature can be shipped with a
+    reasonable delay (2 months max).
+*   P2 feature will be dropped and rescheduled for later rather than delaying
+    the milestone.
+
+We will update this list when reaching each milestone; some milestones may also
+be refined if appropriate.
