I completely agree we should consider any roadmap a living document that we expect to revise, but my hope is that we will formalise an agreed roadmap by vote. My view is that we should aim to regularly revisit the roadmap, and anticipate that it will be revised based on contributors' shifting priorities and pressures.
I think the important thing is that in revising the roadmap we'll again make explicit trade-offs as a community about what we want to invest in before the next release.

I also agree that the roadmap should not be written on stone and that we should be flexible if we believe that we need to. We should also take this discussion as an opportunity to discuss how we plan to use CEPs moving forward. .
