As usual, our short-term roadmap is a set of issues in YouTrack assigned to a particular milestone. You have read-only access to it.
We accept bug reports here on the forum and link them to YouTrack issues so you will be able to track an issue history, milestone, fix version and so on.
Also, please use the Ideas forum category to share your thoughts on what should be implemented in the platform and Studio. Most liked ideas will be considered as highly prioritized candidates to be included in the roadmap for the next or future releases.
Release 6.9 is scheduled for May, 2018. The beta version will be available in April.

Yes you will be able to upgrade. We cannot guarantee effortless migration, but you will have a list of all potentially breaking changes and a clear instruction for what to do with them. As usual, some of the migration steps will be done by Studio automatically.
So in terms of backward compatibility upgrade to version 7.0 will not be much different from upgrade for example from 6.7 to 6.8.
