It's intentional, the release team decides on new features, we'll do
this early (week 6), and this cycle we will try to be more active,
getting regular status updates on the different features).

But this doesn't encompass all developments happening in GNOME, but a
set of "major user visible (and marketable) changes, typically
affecting several modules, in need of some consensus, and a person to
lead the change.". For other features we will keep on pushing for
people to publish roadmaps, but it's simply not possible to forbid
other developments happening.
