Hi
The roadmap is set in the manifest thread. https://www.bforartists.de/content/bforartists-2-manifest
In short, we will merge Blender 2.8 into Bforartists, check what old changes to keep and what to revert, and then look what can be further improved. Usual candidates are double menu entries, easy menu access, changes at the keymap, getting rid of the monochrome icons, and so on.
And the size of the staff depends of who wants to work at something. I cannot speak for others here. Every helping hand is welcome
Kind regards
Reiner
