- July 7 -- Small feature development and bug fixing ends; Maintenance phase begins
- July 25 -- Maintenance phase ends, code freeze phase begins
- August 5 -- ns-3.9 posted
- August 5 -- ns-3.10 Open phase begins
Release status
New feature merges
The following seem to be on track for inclusion in ns-3.9, unless issues in the review arise.
- MPLS
- Spectrum Modeling
- OFDM
- 802.11g patchset
- Energy model
- Enhancements to ns-2 trace reader (issue 473)
Minor feature merges
The following minor features seem to be ready for merging or should be fixable soon:
- API for TOS bytes (issue 897)

These issues are candidates to become blocker issues.
- Doxygen incomplete (discussed on list already)
- peekData warnings (issues 846 and 912)
- AODV problems reported by Kevin Peters (also, issue 879)
- Wimax serialize (issue 905)
Features that may slip
The following features are in danger of slipping to ns-3.10 or later:
- VANET mobility model (no reviews)
- ns-3 jamming model (no reviews)
- TCP Vegas (blocked by lack of progress on TCP congestion control architecture)
- Chord/DHT (authors are planning to revise code based on comments)
- app store and build system refactoring
- remove ./waf --regression
