I could easily create a custom report (if we don't have it already) to 
automatically create this page... upside is that everything calculates 
automatically, downside it is not as pretty, though I don't think it 
would be that hard to fix with some css tweaks.

Slightly, tangentially, I wonder if the pretty wiki version
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/9/Schedule
should be higher level and encompassing of important milestones across 
the Fedora Project (Events like FUDCon, Art Team, Marketing, 
Infrastructure, etc.) while putting some of the more team specific tasks 
in sub-schedules in that team's wiki space.

Thoughts? Comments?
