Roadmap

Milestones

Name	Goal	Short Description	Status
MVP	Set of modules for easy start of Magento projects targeted to the Japanese market.	Japan has a long and rich history and traditions. Magento should be properly configured and extended to fully satisfy generic requirements of Japanese market. Main common customizations should be implemented as a set of modules that may be installed on top of Magento Open Source. So Magento Partners may focus on implementation of specific business requirements. For MVP some advanced Magento features may not be supported. For example, MVP supports only single store with `ja_JP` locale and `JPY` currency.	Released
MVP with multiple locales support	Possibility to use all features of Magento Open Source and Magento Commerce with Magento Japanese packages.	Features implemented in scope of MVP milestone should be extended and improved to be fully compatible with all Magento features (e.g full support of multiple websites). Additional features that may help in development and promoting Magento projects at Japan (e.g. localization of sample data) also may be included in scope of this milestone.	Planning
Magento core improvements #1	Add extension points to Magento core modules to enable similar changes for other locales.	Some features implemented in scope of Magento Japanese projects may also bring value for other locales (e.g. possibility to configure PDF fonts). Such features if prove success and has stable API may be moved to Magento Open Source set of modules.	Planning
