I totally agree with you. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an 
automated way to generate a sitemap for the wiki. IMHO we need someone 
(any volunteers? ;)) to go though the wiki pages and categorize them + 
create some sort of sitemap.

Until then http://www.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Special:Categories 
might be something for you - but it's only a temporary solution.
