What comes after Version 1?

A couple of questions here.
What’s going to happen after version one of Discourse? Version 2? Is it a much more minor update or a massive one?

Edit: I see that Discourse is going with a cycle similar to Chrome and Firefox. I’m still interested in what you’re planning to add in these releases though.

Plugins & API is going to be a major focus I believe. Other than that there have been mentions of all sorts of little refinements. I wouldn’t expect to see a finished roadmap until 1.0 is released though.
