Well, I'm not so sure I did. That's why I hope people will at least think about
it if not post an opinion on line. I believe my plan has several weaknesses.

1.) I might be a little to "bottom heavy." Maybe we need two, not just one, guru
types.

2.) The Contact person job is potential very time consuming, which makes me
wonder if it should be done by someone who is also on the Steering Committee.
Remember, our official contact has to take care of local Linux advocacy issues,
publicity, media contacts, etc. It is a really important job and quite
sufficient in itself to burn out three people.

I hope we see some discussion and suggestions on this list. Else, we'll just
have to go with what we've got.
