While I agree that it needs to be populated, I would also agree with Thorsten.
How is one to fully organize and fill out the website without understanding the 
mission of the community which TDF is serving?
Or even the sub-missions thereof?

TDF has a mission:

But the TDF/LO project also has a mission:

which falls under TDF's above mission. Part of updating and filling out the 
website is realizing that, and acting upon it,
giving guidance within each respective site and sub-site per their respective 
missions.

In other words - the two are intricately linked.
