So should/could we take the roadmap and put two main headings: Consortium Community And under those, headings we put the things you have suggested and try to order them a bit? It might be nice at PharoDays next year to be able to point to that list and show show what the consortium made

The incremental GC is already mentioned in "Better support for large heaps (GC tuning API, incremental GC)". Now we have a second paragraph about the incremental GC, that's redundant and the form of the paragraph is not consistent with the rest of the roadmap where each feature has 1 or 2 lines of

I didn’t mean to touch a nerve - and this was why I wrote “minor” points - but you did ask for feedback… Point noted on giving user feedback - I’d actually like to fix things, but currently its just too hard to submit fixes other than pull requests for documentation that is sitting in git hub
