Like many other open source projects, OpenLP uses even version numbers to denote a stable release, and odd version
numbers to denote an unstable (or development) release.
Currently we're in the process of working on OpenLP 2.5 which will become OpenLP 2.6 when we release it. We’re still
not in a position to make this release, but I thought I'd write this blog post to assure you that lots of work is being
done behind the scenes.
Currently we're in the process of working on OpenLP 2.5, which is the current unreleased and unstable version. We're
still not in a position to make a new release, but I thought I'd write this blog post to assure you that lots of work
is being done behind the scenes.
So what have we been working on?
New features:
- Support for chords in songs
- Supporting more projectors by upgrading to PJLink 2
- Support for bibles from the SWORD Project
- Support for ProPresenter 5 song import
- Video backgrounds to songs (depending on your platform)
- Support for EasyWorship 6 song import
- Upgrade the network projector controller to support the PJLink 2 protocol (in addition to PJLink 1)
- Video backgrounds to songs, Bible verses and custom slides (depending on your platform)
- Video timing display so you can see the time left for a media item
- The splitting of the Web Inferface from the core code allowing faster updates and user defined variations
- A new dark theme for Windows and macOS (see Advanced Settings)

So while we might seem to be quiet, the real reason is because we're trying to get everything ready for another
feature-packed release.
Last, but not least, we've decided to make the next release version 3.0 due to the large number of new features and
changes.
