You know what the problem of road maps is when used to make decisions like that? Road maps are not much more than exercises into futurology. Even though nobody can predict the future, if you later happen to go astray for one reason or the other, customers still have this habit of holding you to your 'road maps'. And sometimes they even get mad if they feel they are waiting too long for a feature they want.

So, I don't like giving road maps. Instead, I ask the user to open the history files for Nexus or WorkShelf or NextSTART and judge the possible future by what has *actually* been done in the past.

My advice to you is thus to renew on 'faith' now, or renew only when you see a new release that interests you enough. One thing is for sure: you can't go wrong by doing the latter. :D

This said, and after thinking for a little while, I can give you a broad idea of what lies ahead, without getting into much detail:

* Multiple Shelves (tabbed docks).
* Vertical Shelves.
* Lots more modules/widgets.
* Winstep native theme builder.

In the C:\Program Files\Winstep\ folder (or C:\Program Files (x86)\Winstep\ on a 64 bit system). There's one for NextSTART and another for WorkShelf.
