In my last job we were sufficiently sophisticated users of AWS that we routinely had conversations with product managers to learn if specific features were on the roadmap, and if so, if there was an ETA. We had these conversations because we were debating whether we wanted to write a solution of our own, or if we wanted to wait for a generalized one to be released.

That said, the product managers generally left us with information such as "this is actively being worked on", "this is planned work in the upcoming quarter, but it could change", "this is on the roadmap without a date", and "this is not on the roadmap". No specific dates promised, but it was still good enough for our purposes.

I hope they weren't using our requests to push for specific dates, internally.
