I=E2=80=9Dm thinking along the same lines, a industry wide roadmap makes ve=
ry little=20
sense.
Much like in Linux we have a lot of smaller groups doing their own thing,=20
all working for the good of Linux as they see it, and implicitly, as they=20
use it.
I think its safe to say that Linus would not want any say over the roadmap=
=20
of Intel or Google or any other particpant in the Linux space.
I am in agreement with Gregory that we should reject a Bitcoin-wide scaling=
=20
roadmap.
I do suggest that smalle groups publish their individual roadmaps, show wha=
t=20
they are planning to work on in a place that people will find it (a website=
,=20
not a mailinglist archive).
Those individual roadmaps then show what that group will work on, which=20
helps their communication. It helps people talking about Bitcoin to the=20
general public as well, and it helps people understand whom they would like=
=20
to support financially or otherwise.
