(If I am not clear, that is almost always my mistake.  It is a bad habit
of mine.)  The janitorial work meant adding use-package to the core,
ELPA could be done almost immediately (tough there is no rush), as I
have provided and tested the patch to do so.

I agree that having a road-map would be a good first step.  The current
overview I have is

1. Complete the documentation
2. Prepare the documentation in texinfo
3. Add all relevant files to emacs.git
4. Ensure everything is prepared and loaded correctly
