This document serves to provide a long term roadmap on our quest to a 1.0 version of the OCI container specification.
Its goal is to help both maintainers and contributors find meaningful tasks to focus on and create a low noise environment.
The items in the 1.0 roadmap can be broken down into smaller milestones that are easy to accomplish.
The topics below are broad and small working groups will be needed for each to define scope and requirements or if the feature is required at all for the OCI level.
Topics listed in the roadmap do not mean that they will be implemented or added but are areas that need discussion to see if they fit in to the goals of the OCI.
Although OCI doesn't define a transport method we should have a cryptographic digest of the on-disk bundle that can be used to verify that a bundle is not corrupted and in an expected configuration.
There are some discussions about having `runtime.json` being optional for containers and specifying defaults.
Runtimes would use this standard set of defaults for containers and `runtime.json` would provide overrides for fine tuning of these extra host or platform specific settings.
Define what type of actions a runtime can perform on a container without imposing hardships on authors of platforms that do not support advanced options.
