Roadmap for Roach?

[victorhooi]

This project looks really awesome =), I was just wondering if you guys can share any insight on the future roadmap for Roach?

Also, is it something that's funded by PetroFeed, and actively used by them in production?

The reason I ask is that there was previously a project called node.io (https://github.com/chriso/node.io), but that seems to have been abandoned. And there doesn't seem to be any real alternatives at the moment:

It would be awesome if Roach could be the go-to crawling framework for Node, much like Scrapy is for Python.

Hey @victorhooi,

Yes Roach is being used in production by PetroFeed. We are deeply committed to it and will continue to fund it for the foreseeable future. @ekryski has detailed road map and will be sharing it in detail very soon.

Hi @ADunfield

Aha, coolies - that's good to hear.

Yeah, a Roadmap would be aweesome. Is @ekryski still with PetroFeed?
