Seems like a good idea. Would require some work though: pages renamed and
`#REDIRECT` statements put in the old ones, making sure links are changed etc.
Take a look at the FUDCon Boston brainstorming [1] page and the recent Artwork
Team page redesign process [2].

Some other suggestions:

  * Add "Various" for misc stuff
  * Rename Schedule to Roadmap?
  * Add a "Requests" page, as in RFE/bugs.

> a) Create a default template for all Docs-related pages on the wiki

This is something me and Mairin were talking about: introduce page templates in
various parts of the wiki. It would be a good idea to

> b) Move everything in /Docs/Drafts to DocsProject/Drafts so users know
> that everything in /Docs is published documentation.

Not sure this is worth the effort. :/
