Features Pool

This table contains a list of all the features we want to see happen in Pontoon. Each feature should have a bug associated with it. Features cannot move into the previous sections without a written specification. Priority is here to help us choose which ones should be moved up when we get room in the roadmap. ETC (Estimated Time to Complete) is a very rough estimation of how much it would take for one person to complete the whole feature.
