I'm looking for updated schedules for rollout of ResourceLoader, Lua and other extensions/features. Are there any centralized page for such stuff?

This page is the closest (public) document to what you're talking about, as far as I'm aware. It's not as up-to-date or comprehensive as anyone would like, though.

What I would like is really something simple that says when something is to be made available, and what would be the visible feature. At least what is to be expected for the next 2-3 months, preferable with something about which roll-out cycle and a last date to give a go (or stop) on the planned roll-out.

Besides the Annual goals page linked to by MZMcBride, https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Roadmap attempts to give a visibility over the next few months.
It indicates, for example, that in December 2012, ResourceLoader2 was in the "list of other projects on radar" (although I'm not sure it's comforting, considering that the other item there is LQT3, which was ended on June 30th)
As for Lua, it's also on the Roadmap page, and the activity page gives a few milestones: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Lua_scripting#Milestones_by_quarter . "Full deployment of Lua to the production cluster" is scheduled for "January-March 2013".
For a visibility over the next few days, http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Deployments provides a schedule of deployments (although it lists "slots" more than what changes are actually deployed).
