Ok, I understood the fundamental goal of the project management etc.
improvement was to make it easier for potential new developers (like you)
to jump in and pick tasks. Did I misunderstand it?
Now, your answers indicate you don't really know what you want. How does
fixing a bug or creating a new feature become easier if it is listed in a
project management GUI? It doesn't, you still have to learn and edit the
code.

I filled my own and Mattias' data in the developers page. It is the
"organization chart" that was requested:
  http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Developer_pages

Then there is the roadmap page. It already contains tasks and people
responsible for them. It is not up to date but can be updated:
  http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Roadmap

Everton, could you please explain the problems you face in a more detailed
way. Now this is all very abstract, like everything becomes easy with a
project management system.
That is, if you still want to learn and contribute. If you don't, it's OK,
too.
