I am most curious to see what Lorn and Michael come up with. I have never seen such a job spec, but someone who: - Subscribes and read all mailing lists, writes and disseminates community updates. - Has root on the community-facings servers, to bring immediate benefits like fixing the repeated messages in mailing lists, google search mediawiki extentions, do the community-repository interface. - Gardens and grows the translation teams and local user groups system.
