Furthermore, the Timeline nicely deals with this issue in a cleaner 
way.

You can set default owners of components in Trac. As you'll always file 
against a component, that developer will get that ticket assigned to 
automatically.

See http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/roadmap for the roadmap feature. 
Note that the completion is automatic.

Personally, I'd like to see the Haiku web site turn into something 
similar to what they have at http://DjangoProject.com.

Another real project (scaled-down, no graphic design) that I *think* 
roughly matches the discussion on Haiku-web thus far: 
http://bits.jansson.be/extender

"About" being roughly the contents of haiku-os.org today but driven by 
a real CMS, "Blog" having one category per team (or whichever split-up 
making the most sense) and "Development" an improved version of Trac.

Probably a login-box somewhere, too.
