Board and plan agree
Roadmap items carry the votes and requests that put them there, from the same source as the board.
a roadmap slide updated once a quarterA public roadmap on your own domain, fed by the same requests your customers voted on, so the board and the plan never disagree. When an item ships, the people who asked are told.

Example: Beacon Analytics' public roadmap on its own domain, readable without a login. Votes from the request board tick up on the roadmap cards. The Slack alert item moves from Planned to In progress. Export to Google Sheets moves to Shipped in version 2.5, and Tore tells the 51 people who asked, in their original conversation or by email.
One set of requests feeds the board and the roadmap, so there is nothing to keep in sync by hand.

Move an item to shipped and Tore tells everyone who asked, in the conversation where they asked or by email. Your customer gets the news without having to check. Anyone can follow an item too, and everyone who voted, followed or asked in a merged conversation hears at each step, planned, in progress and shipped, by email and in the widget.
