[Framework-Team] Death to the roadmap page?

Hi Framework & Website Teams,

For those of you not following the plone-users list, there's a discussion

Unfortunately, the situation is *much worse* than Marie indicates, as the
roadmap page is completely obsolete and outdated since we switched to trac.
It's more than a bit embarrassing that we link to it from the home page.

We should have something better, but meanwhile, what should we do with the
old roadmap page? It may be useful to some as a historical artifact.
