We also have a [ https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/community-popcorn mailing list], which currently hosts all discussion around Popcorn.
=== 0.8 August 30th ===
This release will focus on potential API changes in the core, which means fixing things that use the core (e.g., plugins) with a view to shaking out any changes that need to happen to the core in order to support them. This will include a rework of our player plugins (e.g., youtube), helper methods for media attributes, a new custom UI API for extending/replacing the video controls, etc.  You can see a complete list of current bugs here:
=== 0.9 week of September 26th ===
This release will signal an API freeze for the core, such that we can focus on documentation and testing in the lead-up to 1.0.
=== 1.0 November 6th ===
We will ship Popcorn.js 1.0 in the first week of November, launching at the Mozilla Festival (Mozilla Festival — Media, Freedom and the Web London UK, November 4 - 6, 2011). This release will be focused on bug fixes, and end-user facing features like documentation, packaging, the web site, and other things needed in order to find, get, and use Popcorn.js.

  • Build things using Popcorn.js. We've already seen some amazing early adopters grab popcorn and create rich media experiences on the web. We have some of them listed here: http://popcornjs.org/demos, and we need more. Every time someone builds something cool with popcorn, new people find out about it, ideas for new plugins/features are generated, and popcorn spreads.
  • Blog and tweet about it.
  • Get involved with our effort to write end-user documentation, HOWTOs, tutorials, etc.
  • Write plugins. Every time someone makes popcorn do something new via a plugin, we learn more about the APIs and edge cases in the core.
