Website Road-map

This is the road-map for the Investment Check wiki website setting out what is planned in the way of future functionality.  Currently we running the "Initial Launch" version.

Currently the site is in early development and we are keen to hear from you the site user about what things you'd like to see the website provide.  If you do have any such ideas for future functionality please use let us know via the suggestions page.  We will update this page as new items are added to the road-map.

Whilst we are building out the new functionality we also need to ensure we are building up a library of useful content.  To that end if you have searched for an Investment opportunity that you're researching and found we have no information currently listed (or we are missing some that you have), please send us the information you have on the Send us information page.  We will aim to add it to the website as soon as practical so others can find it.  Over time other users might send us further information thereby bolstering what's available for all users.

As it's early in the development it is likely that the look and feel or the site will change from time to time as will some of the functionality.  Some items / functionality might need to be added / removed as the site progresses and the feedback helps us narrow in on what is important to you the users.  This will allow for an editorial style to be established before opening up creation & editing of content to regular users.  

Finally some tidy-up of the input interface will likely be needed. Thereafter a series of tutorial screen-casts can be made to better explain to users how to go about contributing.
