They generally don't plan ahead more than a year at a time (nor have 
they ever claimed to do otherwise). They try to remember and respect 
what has gone before to have continuity, though sometimes they change 
things a bit - because they forget (not so good), because they add new 
functionality or we (the humans) didn't know all there was to know on 
the subect(fine) - or sometimes quietly try to forget something because 
they don't really like it (dubious). For instance they have a ton of 
"zat guns" stolen from the goauld, why don't they use them on Atlantis? 
Do they have to kill all opposition with expensive bullets? Well, they 
don't like them so much. And the third zat shot (if you have seen the 
whole series) kills. I don't see a problem with that, but some of the 
execs think it is stupid and just ignore the guns *g*
