Why not just FreeBSD project management or someting?  And then maybe
some explanation at the top about how the FreeBSD project management
works, with all hats, teams etc. and then you have the explanations of
each team.
Just a thought.

I don't know exactly where, but i agree on your suggestions.  It's
propably good if we put it somewhere where it's easy to find, so you
know who to contact in case you need to, even if you're not a
committer or anything.
