[Product] [OpenStack][Product Work Group]

Has the team done a post-mortem to understand how accurate the current
roadmap is? Now I'm even more concerned this is being published somewhere
where it will be referenced without being up to date. I can already tell
you the Neutron information is quite stale. It's possible we're the most
mismanaged project out there (or maybe not), but my money says the others
are stale as well. If this information is going to be displayed publicly
and referenced by many, I think it needs to be combed over a bit more. In
addition, it would be good for someone on this list to email openstack-dev
and indicate this as well. I didn't realize how widespread this 6 month old
roadmap info was going to be shared, and I'm guessing I'm not the only one.

Thanks,
Kyle
