Hey, thanks for the feedback.

Gantt charts are not my preferred way of mapping out a vision and direction. But like some others stated, many orgs just like to work with that. It's also why I chose it as the header image, because it's familiar. Kinda bummed out that would keep people from reading the article, but not I can't cater to everyone.

Cheers!

I'm not an expert in this matter, but it seems that the aspect of the chart that folks are questioning is the timeline. Could it be as easy as removing that aspect to dissuade the perception of a pseudo-commitment when presenting the roadmap?
That could be a way to go. Another option to represent time in a less fixed manner is to use a now-next-later roadmap schema. It's more to the point of what's important vs. time as a measurement.
