Hi team,
while thinking about restructuring our roadmaps, I was wondering about our
existing roadmaps on [1]. Overall I'd like to have the AG roadmaps more
feature driven, but that requires some more thoughts/changes?
However, here is what I am wondering about...
Most of our roadmaps we link to from [1], are really just pointing to
different JIRAs.
Let's take one example, UPS:
https://aerogear.org/docs/planning/roadmaps/UnifiedPush/
Basically all info on the above page is present in JIRA (including the
'archived' roadmap of older releases). Since JIRA should be the central
tool for planing releases, features and future versions, I think that our
roadmap docs are not adding too much value, since they repeat info that is
available on a different place (JIRA).
Also, maintaining the roadmaps is tedious: You make a change on the actual
JIRA (e.g. move the date of a release or add a new feature). To keep the
roadmap up-to-date, you put the same info on the roadmap doc and send a PR.
Can we remove these roadmap docs?
For UPS that would mean, that the link on [1] would go against:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AGPUSH?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jir...
instead of here:
https://aerogear.org/docs/planning/roadmaps/UnifiedPush/
