There are four or five pages on the existing OOo website
that state what the current common vision is. Of course the
only one that happens to be semi-meaningful is not on the
OOo website.

A how to for that would be useful.

I am referring to pages that are labelled as "Roadmap for
OOo V x.x.  Pages that purport to be official
representations of where the project is going.

Stuff like that is going to be worse than the current situation.

My suggestion is along the lines of
http://en.openoffice.org/wiki/Organization as a
disambiguation page for
http://en.openoffice.org/wiki/Organization_Uno
http://en.openoffice.org/wiki/Organization_Marketing
etc.

Everything related to the UNO project gets labelled as
{{Category:UNO Project]]  Everything related to the art
project is labelled {{Category:ART Project}}
A page can belong to two or more categories.

The idea here is that all that one has to do to find
information is write
http:://en.openoffice.org/wiki/whatever-the-person-is-looking-for.
If that page doesn't exist, then they go to search.

By having stuff like
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Uno/Meta/Organization
you ensure that nobody except members of the project will be
able to find data.  And that defeats the entire point of
using a wiki.  You might as well go back to using subversion
and having to check data out using SVN.
