- Web services reviewed (multiple protocols on the same port)
- Module prototype for Facebook.

- Instead of all the menus like, my sales order, etc there will be a single search screen per object with the possibility to put conditions in search. Also it will be possible to save these filters.
- Smart views. For example possibility to build tree views that include price computed through price list
- Survey engine. Possibility to build surveys easily and attach them to more or less to any object (transversal concept like document management or e-mail – if an object inherits from mail gateway). Example of use: customer care satisfaction, HR etc. Include invitation management.

- Monthly bug fixes release. Stable release every 18 months -new concept of a LTS (long term support) release.
- Maintenance : fix, migration (still unclear what will be public / contributed), bug fixes, security. Belgium – compliancy e.g Vat is guaranteed ?
