you're right, I don't remember why it made sense to list these more than 10 
years ago: it was there in the initial import
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/?view=revision&revision=1651762

it seems it's because it started by counting PMC chairs, with notions of TLP 
and sub-projects...

nowadays it's more noise than anything on this p.a.o site
and we have much clearer description of these special offices at
 https://www.apache.org/foundation/leadership

+1 to drop this note about the 5 special committees


on 300+, nobody knows the real number
we need to work around this fact

"208 committees managing 295 projects"
we can rephrase to "managing more than 295 projects" and link to the 
projects.html page?

I'd really love to have index page staying out of technicalities like 
barbarian DOAP term: projects.html page is there to go more in depth

to me, index requires to be human oriented

Hervé
