Like you, I'd argue in favor of scrapping the roadmap as it exists
today, but I think we should do a better job making the Deployments
page more informative. For example, now that we're working towards a
proper beta mode on mobile _and_ desktop, it would IMO be useful to
summarize which features are currently in beta and planned to enter
production soon. We still have too many situations where people are
caught by surprise by a deployment, both internally and externally.
The mobile web team has been trying to summarize what's going out in our
weekly deployments:

We've found this tremendously useful both from a pre- and post- deployment
perspective. Michelle Grover has been doing some work around automating the
generation of these reports, though I believe it's still a WIP.
