What if an organization uses WSS site for their projects and they have hundreds of sites and you are working on at least 20 of them. Each of them have tasks assigned to you, or some sort of document. Wouldn't you think the roll-up feature is a good fit for this scenario? On the central Project management site create a roll-up so that users can see all their tasks, docs, etc. related to them with one simple place. Not only you should have a great architecture design but I also think you can enchance the users experience by giving them quick ways to access information.
