About this episode
Welcome back to another State of the Thunder! In this episode, Managing Director Ryan Sipes is leading us through how the Thunderbird roadmap. Unlike other companies where roadmaps are driven solely by business needs, Thunderbird is working with our community governance and feedback from the wider user community to keep us honest even as we move forward.
