Iteration Plan for February 2025

Open kieferrm opened this issue 10 months ago • 3 comments

This plan captures our work in February 2025. This is a 4-week iteration. We will ship in early March.

Since mid-December, GitHub Copilot has been available for free for everyone. This allows us to treat AI support as an out-of-the-box experience in VS Code. Consequently, going forward, we'll cover our client-side work for Copilot in this plan, similarly to how we have been tracking our work on our Remote Extensions over the last years.

Endgame

  • Feb 24, 2025: Endgame begins
  • Feb 28, 2025: Endgame done

The endgame details for this iteration are tracked here.
