No there isn't, per se. What there is are pages like this:
http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Projects/BugTrackingSystemMigration
http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Projects/WikiMigration
http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Roadmap/Roadmap

While it would be great to have some more help on the website front,
I'm wondering if you would be willing to do work on finding some
pros/cons for using some of the webapps discussed on the lists a few
months ago.
In my mind the two main contenders were Trac and and Redmine. Since
then I've setup a Savannah project for gNewSense, where (soon) all
builder hacking will happen, and hopefully all other project related
code.

I'm still not entirely happy about running our BTS externally, but I
can definitely see benefits to having it with our code, and in savannah.

We've had a webapps discussion twice already, so I'm not sure I want to
start another just now. But if you could (perhaps with me) look into
those options it would be a great help.
