Description
It would be very helpful to have a global wiki for generalized instructions. The main home page should be the global wiki. The current functionality of news, recent projects, etc. could possibly be implemented with macros() in the wiki, so could be available globally. You could extend this paradigm (idiom, design, convention?) to all the project-specific main pages, and give the managers of each some ability to customize their own main page.
This would be extremely useful in our own situation, where we are using Redmine to manage diverse projects across our engineering group, so we have some need of a "global" wiki area for generalized policy docs, user guides, procedures, etc.

+1 For now, we're using wiki of one project as global wiki, and I added link to whis Wiki to main top menu, with text "Wiki", but it's just a workaround hack ;)

+1 as I'm having to create some temporary hacks in order to present company wide information, like programming guidelines, vacation policies, etc. on the Home page. It would be great to have the ability for any module to be "site wide", including ability for existing permission settings, etc. these modules have.
