Martin-
Thanks for your comments; I will summarize and repost this to the dev
list for further discussion. Maybe I will even move this list to the
"Plone Strategic Planning" workspace at openplans so that we can edit it
collaboratively without creating chaos.

Scratching my own itch (thanks to Hanno for suggesting I look at the
component owner list in trac), I pulled together this list of current
component owners, sorted into owned and unowned.
COMPONENTS WITH TRAC OWNERS
Archetypes nouri
I wonder how effectively Daniel can manage this, given that it's such
a big piece of code. It'd be good to make sure we can form out bugs
here to others as needed.
Catalog witsch
Content Rules optilude
Control Panel hannosch
Image Blob Support witsch
Installer (Mac OS X) smcmahon
Installer (Unified) smcmahon
Installer (Windows) dreamcatcher
Intelligenttext maurits
Internationalization hannosch
Javascript mj
KSS (Ajax) ree
Linkintegrity witsch
Locking jfroche Navigation/Folder listings optilude
I really wish I could give this to someone else... I don't "own" this
in any meaningful way, and I think I become a bottleneck.
NuPlone Theme limi
Limi is probably a bottleneck here. Unfortunately, we struggle to find
people willing to own template/visual bugs.
OpenID support davisagli
Portlets optilude
Search witsch
Spelling Error hannosch
Transforms hannosch
Versioning alecm
Visual Editor (Kupu) duncan
WebDAV dreamcatcher
This one tends to bottleneck, because not enough people know very much
about WebDAV.
COMPONENTS WITH NO TRAC OWNERS
ATReferenceBrowserWidget Accessibility Calendar and time
Content Types
This one really should have an owner, since it's so fundamental.
Discussions Documentation Infrastructure (kind of a broad area)
Right, we should rationalise this away.
Login and registration
This one badly needs an owner. I think Wichert was looking after it,
but realised he couldn't keep up.
Mail
MimetypesRegistry
Permissions RSS RTL Upgrade/Migration Usability (also a
pretty broad area)
Users/Groups
Ditto - I think Wichert gave up on this one.
Visual and templates
This one is huge, and used to be Limi's.
Wiki support (Wicked) Workflow Working copy support (Iterate)
MY QUESTIONS:
Are there owned components where the owner is not active?
Are there unowned components that are actually owned?
Which unowned components are the most critical to get owners for?
See above.
Are there unnamed components that need owners?
Are there unnamed components that have owners?
Should I take this discussion out to the dev list? ;-)
Please! If we can define what a component owner does, we can probably
recruit some more.
