A Dev Note is a summary of a feature that CipSoft is considering to implement or update. The objective of Dev Notes is gather player feedback about a very specific subject before the developers continue elaborating the idea, in order to steer or even halt development.
In a way, the Dev Notes "system" can be viewed as an evolution of the Focus Groups and Councils, which were not as specific, involved only a manually selected group of players and had more open discussions instead of feedback about specific ideas.
In July, 2022, CipSoft published a news in a format similar to Dev Notes, but called it "PM Insights" instead. Since that news was also used to present a feature under development that can be implemented in the future, it's also listed here.
