WordPress Public Roadmap

[lukecavanagh]

I think having a public roadmap for WordPress would help users and contributors.

So being able to add possible feature suggestions and then being able to engage the greater WordPress community for being able to vote on those features.

I am not suggesting to use a 3rd party like Trello or others, but more a roadmap which lives on wordpress.org.

Thoughts and issues with having a public roadmap for WordPress?

FWIW, there's a Roadmap page at ​https://wordpress.org/about/roadmap/. It references the ​Ideas section, which will probably be retired in favor of Requests and Feedback forum in the future, see #2203.

There's also a list of features currently being developed at ​https://make.wordpress.org/core/features-as-plugins/. Perhaps we could link to it from the Roadmap page.

@SergeyBiryukov

Thanks for those links.

I think one clear roadmap page which contained all of those elements and then linked in the footer where ideas is currently would help.

This is not something the meta team can/should work on without instruction from the core team. Once there is a plan for what the core team wants, the meta team can implement it.
