where would you go to select one of 5 story-content-templates that you 
created?

If you did not mean to accuse mean then this is fine with me. lets 
forget this.

well as I said, if you have more things to do than you have time to, you 
have to set priorities. and between fixing bugs and writing code for the 
next version that is already decided to be implemented, no-one had done 
so far the concentrated effort of creating such a roadmap. I fully agree 
with you that it would be better to have one. We just do not because of 
time and coordination reasons. we have a larger backlog of issues than 
plan for the future currently.
