Sounds good, but I would suggest double-checking the existing page to
either replace them or grab text from them :)

http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=KDE+Quality+Team
http://www.kde.org/getinvolved/
http://www.kde.org/support/

OK for development they don't have the per-subproject matrix you suggest,
but for the rest they do cover quite a lot of sub-communities I think :)

I would suggest covering only coding on techbase and pointing to the URLs
above for the other activities, no need to reinvent the wheel every year IMHO,
and duplicate outdated information on multiple websites.
