<p>OpenLP 2.0.4 has been out for 4 months now, and while there don't seem to be any major issues with it, that doesn't mean there are no more bugs. With this in mind we're going to be releasing version 2.0.5 at the end of this month, June. This will be the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">last release</span> of OpenLP 2.0.</p>
<p>Once 2.0.5 has be released, we will be gearing up for the release of 2.2. As a part of this we will be starting up the nightly builds again and we will release a beta at the end of August with a view of releasing 2.2 at the end of October.</p>
<p>In order to reduce the time between (major) releases, the OpenLP team has decided to move to a release cycle more like Firefox and Chrome, with short cycles and a smaller number of features in each release. With fewer features in each release there should also be fewer bugs, and a faster cycle should mean that bugs are fixed sooner too.</p>
<p>We have also started writing automated tests for OpenLP, which should help to curb some of the bugs before they make it into our main codebase. Each developer is required to run all the tests against their code before they can submit it, and they are required to write tests for their code. This way our test coverage increases and we are able to prevent regressions (when new code breaks some of the older code).</p>
<p>So while you won't find all the features you want in OpenLP 2.2, we hope to be able to get the features you want out to you sooner in future because we're not spending forever getting all the features developed while you're waiting for a huge release to happen.</p>

Ever wanted to know how many developers work on OpenLP, or when OpenLP started, or even how many are working on the code
at the same time? Well, now you can see this and more with the video above.
**Full HD: full screen is highly recommended**
This video is a visual representation of the history of changes to the OpenLP source code. Each person floating around
is a developer who worked on the code, and each "shot" is a change. Green means they added a file, orange/yellow means a
file was modified, and red means a file was deleted (it happens). Each branch is a directory, and each dot is a file.
Enjoy!
