Hi,

I've silently followed the discussion in this thread and I'd like to 
comment on the structure.

Putting Roadmap below Community is counterintuitive, at best. To most of 
us it seems clear what a roadmap is about - functions that have been 
identified and are planned to be implemented in the future. However, in 
this case some may think "Is this a roadmap about the community?" - 
certainly not. In my opinion, a roadmap is of top-level interest 
(provided that it exists). Actually, I often see myself searching for a 
roadmap when visiting Web sites of projects that I use regularly (and 
often it does not exist). A good example in this regard is SVN [1].
