Well, there is always the '-committers' list; if all CVS commits had/have
meaningful commit changelog notices, then that could drive something.

There are two things being talked about here:
1.) A forward-looking rad map;
2.) A status indication of where development is happening, and a history of
past development.

In my mind 2 is more important than 1, for all the reasons Tom already
mentioned.
