Hi folks,
A few months back, we switched to updating the WMF Engineering Roadmap
in Google Docs[1], and deprecated the on-wiki version. This wasn't an
ideal solution, but the way that we were doing updates before also
wasn't working, so it was worth trying something else.
Now there's a script[2] to update this page, which we've used for a
couple of weeks now. The page is here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Roadmap
The page is output as old-school subpage templates now, which isn't
perfect, but has the advantage that there's a lot of latitude to
reformat the page without altering the script. Feel free to play
around with the formatting.
The next step I'm planning to take is to output the page as something
that can be loaded via Scribunto's loadData call, which then will make
it pretty easy to include portions of the output in other pages.
This isn't in Gerrit yet, but that's only because I haven't quite
figured out where it should live. Suggestions welcome (offlist or on
my talk page[3] is probably best for that).
