Technically, the PMC Chair is not a leader and his vote counts exactly
as the one of any other PMC member. He merely has the burden to take
care of a number of post-graduation steps, which I completed during the
weekend (except those now being handled by Infra)
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/graduation.html#life-after-graduation
and to act as a liaison officer between PMC and Apache Board.
I don't think we want to encourage anyone to think of making a career as
a professional OpenOffice community manager or anything like that.
Yes, but there are events that we as a project cannot (or at least
shouldn't) miss. I tend to agree with Peter's interpretation of this:
allow local (for a certain definition of "local": same country,
continent...) volunteers to occasionally participate in events or talks
to promote Apache OpenOffice there.
