Hi @cathychen

Thanks for your contributions to the OpenMRS Community. It’s pretty cool to have you guys stick around for more awesomeness \m/

So, for starters, you can go through the Technical Roadmap and get a big picture of what is currently being developed and their development status. You will notice that RefApp 2.3 and Platform 2.0 are currently the hot topics in the community.

As for Platform 2.0, we are currently in the middle of a sprint on migration of LegacyUI from OpenMRS core to the LegacyUI module

The sprint to move the legacy UI to a module is on

As part of the 2.0 release of the platform, we intend to move the legacy UI to a module, these efforts were started this past summer as part of GSoC, and Tharunya did a great job in setting the ball rolling. We’ve put together a sprint and we are calling on all you developers to help us get this done. Below are the details about the sprint: Jira Dashboard (where you can find tickets) - https://issues.openmrs.org/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=83 Git repository: https://github.com/openmrs/ope…

We also have about 30’ish tickets that are ready to be taken up and will be released with Platform 2.0 in November, right before the OpenMRS Summit in December.
