Sure it was, did you even read what you signed? It's the very first point...

Follow-up Post on the Community Requests to Frontier Developments

Roadmap is listed as a grievance, not as a request for change - unlike Open Betas, Permanent Test Server, and improved Bug Fix communications.
So why was it added to the Open Letter? If you list it as primary grievance you very much imply that it is a problem, you just didn't make a suggestion how to fix it.
So Babelfisch was right then. If people did a little more reading first there'd be less furious players baffled about the product they bought.
The reason I didn't support the petition was that I read it.
Comedy effect.
The requests were the points of discussion with FDev, not the list of grievances seen throughout the community.
'Hey FDEV, this is our major grievance, please keep it that way! Sincerely, the community.'
Roadmap isn't listed as the letter's major grievance.
You are right, it's listed as primary grievance.
Primary Grievances
The following bullet points are a simplified list of current grievances the community has with Frontier Developments and Elite: Dangerous.
- Lack of communication across the board which includes: direction of the game, future roadmap, bug fixes and more.
Incorrect. It is listed amongst the inclusions within the first bullet-topic of the simplified list of current grievances the community has - just as your quote shows.
The
Whats your problem? Direction (or lack of) is a major issue. Hopefully FD will at least now see some players like myself want some clarity on where they are going. EDs gone through 3 direction changes, and has resulted in what can best be described as a half finished holiday resort.

That is just pure evil. That could tip them over the edge and close down the servers.
?!
That's what I am saying. Stuart is the one who claims that better communication regarding the direction of the game was never asked for in the Open Letter.
I just said it's listed as a primary grievance, showed you the quote where it's listed as primary grievance and you are telling me it isn't?
"Direction of the game & roadmap are amongst the community's grievances"
!=
"This letter requests you to change your policy of communicating roadmap & game direction"
There is not much point in discussing with you as long as you are lying about the content of the open letter.
Look, I just said that it's listed as a primary grievance and showed you the quote where it's listed as a primary grievance. Your reply to that was 'Incorrect.'
You are either lying or blind.
Maybe we need better communication from the open letter writers about what exactly is meant by grievance (primary or otherwise) and what the intended result of including this in the letter was?
Maybe I could set up a discord channel so they can communicate with the community...
Perhaps an open letter might be effective?
Perhaps we should start with an Open Letter Thread Thread committee. I heard Mr. Bartlett has some experience in these things.
