npm is the world's largest software registry. Open source developers from every continent use npm to share and borrow packages, and many organizations use this.

Looks like this is too little of "What we are working on"!!

We probably now need to replace that with "What we will deliver by date"!!

We have seen so many feature requests that have not even seen light of day.

alexfoster pointed out no new changes in Maps since Jun 2020. Hope we see some changes in the feature request responses.

That will be a BIG disappointment, at a time that SW could be on the chopping block in our environment. Currently, I'm having a lot of issues with incorrect discovery of "intelligent" discovery, which makes the maps we're building useless, or at least confusing for users. The lack of IPSLA support then makes us go back to Network Atlas to create other mapping. This is duplicative, and leading us to consider developing our own tool. SW could be on it's last legs if this next update isn't significant.
