[HACKERS] Do we create a new roadmap page for development?

Hello,

I'd like to share our roadmap for PostgreSQL development, as other companies and individuals do in the following page.
Butthis page is for PostgreSQL 10.
 

PostgreSQL10 Roadmap
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL10_Roadmap

Should I create a page for PostgreSQL 11 likewise?  Or, do you want a more stable page named "PostgreSQL Roadmap"
insteadof "PostgreSQL11 Roadmap" and attach the target version to each feature as in "Feature X (V11)", so that we can
representmore longer-term goals?
 

And, why don't we add a link to the above roadmap page in the "Development information" page?

Development information
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Development_information


Regards
Takayuki Tsunakawa

I think a page that's just called PostgreSQL Roadmap will get out of
date pretty quickly.  Ultimately it'll end up like the TODO list,
which is not really a list of things TO DO.  The advantage of the
version-specific pages is that old information kind of ages its way
out of the system.

I'm sure nobody will object to you doing that.  It's a wiki, and
intended to be edited.

Maybe so.  I created a page for PostgreSQL 11 and add a link to our roadmap:

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL11_Roadmap

Please add your roadmaps when you can.

Thanks, done. Also, I moved the existing the link to "Development projects" from " Past PgCon Developer Meeting Notes"
tothe new header "Roadmaps and Projects", because the development projects page doesn't appear to fit the PGCON notes.
