I made an outline from Jonos book. I made it to use for reference as I
created a Road Map for my team:
http://okiebuntu.homelinux.com/okwiki/organization

A wiki template for making a roadmap:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Roadmaps/Template

A blog post by Jono about Road Maps:
http://www.jonobacon.org/2009/11/10/creating-a-roadmap-for-more-successful-teams/

Hope some of that is useful. I'd llike to see the progress you make.
respectfully,
