From MediaWiki.org
Since version 1.6, releases are quarterly snapshots of the development trunk, which is kept continuously in a runnable state.
We're trying to plot out upcoming important, big, or exciting things with respect to priority and when we hope to have them done...
More specific roadmap items are currently being developed. This is not complete, and subject to change.
Please don't add items to this list if you're not actually actively working on MediaWiki. This is not a wishlist. (Bug reports and feature requests should be filed on BugZilla as usual.)

- Work to improve caching hit rates, on MW side and squid sides
- Document functions. Many have no comments and the argument forms are unintuitive
