The developers met in person for the first time at the conference. They identified the following possible areas to investigate and work on over the next few years:
 
* GeoGebra Web refactoring: one code base
 
* 3D algorithms for parametric surfaces, intersecting curves
 
* 3D input devices: eg Kinect, webcam
 
* Non-Euclidian view for spherical / hyperbolic geometry: using 3D code
 
* Barycentric coordinates, triangle centers
 
* Interactive Whiteboard Improvements
 
* Making GeoGebra run faster and identifying bugs more quickly
 
* Turning a locus into an Implicit Curve automatically
 
* Proving & symbolic computations
 
* USB Logging eg Vernier Go!Motion, Kinect, Phoenix
 
* Equation Editor: interface & spreadsheet
 
* Moodle: connection to GeoGebra, exercises
 
* Spreadsheet / Statistics enhancements
