A very rough outline for the development of new features.
Version 1.0
- The first public release.
Version 1.1
- Quotes in Tags "" so you can have 2 words eg. "This tag". (Status : Pending)
- TinyMCE compressor or possibly a new rich text editor. (Status : Complete! CKEditor.)
- A Cron implementation for automating tasks. (Status : Pending)
- Bring total amount of themes to 20+. (Status : Complete! 20+ Themes and counting on getpixie.co.uk)
- Subscribe to RSS of a certain user in multi user blogs (e.g. I want to see all Scott's posts). (Status : Pending)
- Table prefix during install to allow more than one site per database. (Status : Complete!)
- More languages by integrating Google AJAX Language API. (Status : Pending (More languages have been added.))
Version 1.2
- More install options with new modules (specifically for business sites/users). (Status : Pending)
- Upload functionality to be given in/around TinyMce. (Status : Complete! CKEditor has this ability.)

Version 1.3
- Blocks to be improved with new admin section and database. (Status : Pending)

- Introduce pre-release security testing of Pixie using skipfish (Status : Pending)
- Prefix all of Pixie's variables with pixie_ and set extract to use prefix pixie. Requiring all variables to be prefixed pixie it will then become a requirement for all Pixie code. This will ensure safer code but also grow the code base considerably. (Status : Pending)
