That also means that I'd like to get rid of some of my duties sooner or
later. Here is a rough list of tasks I do / did (I suppose I'll miss a
lot, but time will tell):

- maintain the wishlist -- mail fedora owners when new stuff gets added,
remove stuff that got added to the repos

- writing the reports once a weeks (which includes the meeting
summaries; see below)

- keeping the wiki update and in a good shape (best to subscribe to all
EPEL pages and look at all commits)

- make the list works; e.g. make sure that problems get solved,
questions answered; most of the time that will work automatically, but
sometimes mail from fresh contributers don't get answered and then I
took care of it

I'll continue to do some of the tasks for now if time permits, but if
anybody is interested to take over a task let me know. I'd especially
like to get rid of the wishlist job and the reports. Any volunteers?

I also maintained the Schedule in the wiki, send the list of topics to
the list before the meeting and wrote the meeting summaries. I suppose
the new chairmen has to take over these tasks or find somebody to help
him with them.
