January Horizon and Meridian Releases
In January we released point updates for Horizon 27 and Meridians 2019 and 2020.
Horizon 27.0.3
Horizon 27.0.3 is a minor release with a number of mostly esoteric bug fixes, and a few small enhancements.
The codename for 27.0.3 is Dolphins.
For a complete list of changes in 27.0.3, see the release notes.
Meridians 2019.1.15 and 2020.1.4
Both Meridian releases had just a few small changes, including a new soft dependency on Haveged.

Release Roadmap
February Releases
The next OpenNMS release day is February 2nd, 2021.
Currently we expect a Horizon 27 point release.
Next Horizon: 28 (Q1 2021)
The next major Horizon release will be Horizon 28.
We're still in the development cycle for it, but at a high level it is expected to contained our finished work moving OpenBMP's functionality into OpenNMS, as well as enhancements to handle ToS/QoS in flows.
Next Meridian: 2021 (Q2 2021)
With the recent release of Meridian 2020, plans are still tentative.
However, the current plan is that Meridian 2021 will be based on Horizon 28.
We'll know more once development plans start to firm up.
