Debian has 1,000s of active contributors. From what I can see, we have a
couple dozen, tops, so I kindly offer that this kind of structuring is
wasted effort.

Here are the concrete actions that you listed, and how SL is getting them
done already, from my point of view :)

- represent the Project to others, giving talks and presentations about it,
attending trade shows, as well as building good relationships with other
organizations and companies, fundraising

We are all empowered to do this already :)

- manages the project and defines its vision

We are all empowered to do this on the wiki, github, and motions to SLOBs :)

- talk to other developers, assist their work; coordination and
communication

We are so small that everyone who is listening is here on this list :)

- conducting votes for the project -- notably the Project Leader elections,
but also any other votes that are run (General Resolutions, for example).

- determining the number and identity of the people eligible to vote, for
the purpose of calculating quorum

We don't need a position to do these 2 things, we need a person (or more)
to do it, and we here on this list are de facto the persons who could be
that person. So I suggest we just get on with it :)

- adjudicating any disputes about interpretation of the constitution

We already have an ombudsman for this

- keep track of project financial assets, income, expenditures and any
other financial information

You are doing a great job :D

- keep track of hardware resources and any other physical assets of the
project

I guess Walter and Bernie are doing this already

- keep track of domain names, trademarks, and any other intangible assets
of the project

I guess Conservancy is doing this already

- periodically publish public reports about changes in assets and resources
including (but not limited to): money coming in via donations, money being
spent with SLOB approval, new hardware bought, etc.

The finance manager motion Caryl drafted has requirements for this, but
until then, its a shared responsibility of SLOBs, and I am pretty happy
with how its been done

- keep track of organizations holding assets in trust for project and
propose to the SLOB changes in the list of trusted organization

Does any other org hold any SL assets in trust?

Cheers
Dave
