### 0.29 - December 2020 Update ### 0.31 - January 2021 Update
Our goals for [v0.29 release cycle][github-release-link] were to focus on adding on end-user experience, stability, accessibility, localization and quality of life improvements for both the development team and our end users. Due to the short dev cycle due to the holidays this month, larger work items will show up next release such as FZ editor improvements and three new plug-ins for PowerToys Run (service, regkey, system commands). Our goals for [v0.31 release cycle][github-release-link] were to focus on improving the FancyZones editor, adding in some new features into PowerToys Run, some ARM64 work, and stability.
Our [prioritized roadmap][roadmap] of features and utilities that the core team is focusing on for the near future. We fixed a lot of localization issues from our initial release but we may not still be perfect. If you find an issue, please file a [localization bug][loc-bug].
