I've always struggled to locate the following information every time I go searching:

When are the next rosdistro releases due?
What platforms are they going to be running on?
What underlying dependency shifts are looming (e.g. python3)?

The first thing I do is google 'ros roadmap'. I just watched a colleague go looking for the same information and also googled those exact same keywords. Probably others do also.

What they get you at #1 is http://wiki.ros.org/ROS/Roadmap which doesn't provide recent or new information, but is now information about a legacy process that is not marked as legacy - confusing. And then you have to really start digging to answer the questions above.

The information can be found from the ros main page (http://wiki.ros.org/) under 'Distributions' which isn't entirely obvious. Important pages being:

http://wiki.ros.org/Distributions
http://wiki.ros.org/Distributions/Timeline
http://www.ros.org/reps/rep-0003.html (which could do with an update for indigo/j-turtle)

To make it more visible, can we:

Forward wiki.ros.org/ROS/Roadmap -> wiki.ros.org/Roadmap
Add links for the above to that page?

Cheers,

Daniel/Yujin.
