All of the above. I'm stating in detail how we will get as far as I
can see into the future; which will bring us closer to "there". As
well as reasons it probably will not a be binary choice when we have
more knowledge of the capabilities and constraints. The level of
detail of the roadmap is in places already too high as it both tries
to document an intermediate state as well as hint at where we possibly
want to go from there - and bits of what it documents will probably
already be invalid by the time much of it is in place.
