I think that doesn't come as a surprise, most probabbly OOo is perceived
as a dead horse now. To get a sense for activity in the wiki, on mailing
lists, ... one should take a look at the period before Easter this year.

To me it's unclear what the role of a Bureaucrat is or where it differs
from an Administrator. It's a subset of Administrators.

I'd say we could ask Clayton as he was Bureaucrat, editor, reviewer and
Administrator, but ...

Certainly SysOp/Administrator/Bureaucrat would be tied to Apache
committers.

Entry points for some overview:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OpenOffice.org_Wiki:Administrators

Reviewers appear to be members of the documentation team, as are editors
but not only and that group is larger I don't know everyone.
