I poked around and found this page:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Special:Statistics
This lists some additional roles (with counts)
Administrators (26)
Bureaucrats (4)
Editors (20)
Reviewers (5)
Those are in addition to 35,020 User accounts.
Curiously, it reports only 5 of the 35,020 users as having been active
in the past 7 days.
How we authorize people for these roles and what qualifications are
required for these roles is an important question.
There are a similar set of questions we should ask about the support
forums, what the roles are and how PPMC oversight maps to them.

Just a sidebar: one of those five active users is pure wiki gold.
A previously inactive user, the kind who doesn't bother to create a User
page, has added some valuable details to the Writer manual, in the
section on footnotes and end-notes. The contribution needs a little
light copy-editing, and is incomplete; but for the moment, the wiki
version of the manual is more helpful and up-to-date than the production
versions (ODT or PDF), though admittedly neither as elegant nor as
controlled.
