No, it doesn't automatically appear there. People that are working on Flex
have to update it, but guess what? Nobody is updating it. They're probably
not updating it because they would rather spend their time working on Flex.
As a committer I hardly have time to mess with Flex, when I do have that
time, I am not going to spend it playing with a Wiki. I'm going to spend it
playing with Flex. I'm sure others feel similar, or this status page would
have more information in it.

So if a decision maker isn't going to look for the "Status of Project" page
then what makes you think they'll drill down the web site to search for a
roadmap?

Yes. A roadmap isn't going to prolong the life of Flex. But people
committing, making patches and contributing will.
