Hello Ankita,

I'm currently trying to get rid of some code smell blockers [1], i.e. kind of a 
cleaning phase before we do a release. I also see some work done on the XDDF / 
chart area, but I don't know if Alain is working on bigger changes there.

My guess for the release would be by the end of January.
