In this line:

Conducts presentations and seminars if requested.

I think the question is "Requested by whom?"  Requested by anyone with an
open seminar, or requested by the Marketing Project, or requested by the
Community Council.

In three other lines, a certain amount of accountablity to the Marketing
Project seems to be implied:

* uses the OpenOffice.org Marketing Project as a resource and requests
assistance and ideas to assist them to market OpenOffice.org in their
region.

[that is, if the Project is a resource that they need - and the word
"request" is repeated.]

* joins the Marketing Project and offers their specialist skills to
contribute to the goals and activities of the Project.

[Note - the "Goals...of the Project"]

* subscribes to or monitors [email protected] and
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

[Must be a part of the loop - not a rogue agent]

Then notice the chart - the overall strategy comes from the Project Leads -
not the MarCons.  The overall goals come from the Project - how those goals
are carried out locally are up to the MarCons.

Now, how all this applies to the current DLS and any given MarCon's
attendance or absence to this meeting - I am in no posistion to decide.
