I'm in the process of creating a schedule baseline. I would like to use "rolling wave planning" (Progressive Elaboration) to create my schedule - only put in detailed activities for near future work and high level information for the activities in the far future.

I'm wondering how this works with creating a baseline - as my baseline should be a "frozen" plan to compare my project "actuals" as the project is being executed. How can I compare all my "actuals" if my baseline didn't contain detailed information for the far future activities?
How can I realized predict details about activities that aren't clearly defined at this point?
