Reconciling an agile plan with a long-term roadmap

An agile plan is not the same as a waterfall plan, just like an agile roadmap is not the same as a traditional roadmap.

You mean we have to plan further than this sprint?

Let me organize a meeting to discuss that.

M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Agile isn't about planning. It's about managing/controlling developers.

And that's what usually go so wrong that the solution is even worse than the problem :sigh:
