Well, I maintain the UML kernel component. That meas I keep it running, fix regressions
and try to answer questions from other developers.
Since I do this in my spare time there is not much time left for adding new features.

So, my roadmap is "keep it alive" :-)

I don't have such a dump. But I agree that we need to rework the website.
It is very, very old.
Maybe it is worth adding a UML section to http://kernelnewbies.org/?
