Ok, but a lot of people do a lot of things (Guy with the ftp archive, Sue with the web page, etc...). Having these titles just sounds like VPs are more important than others.
Read: except you Bruce as Project Leader, noone should have pompous titles.
Sounds silly eh ? I know but I have an epidermic reaction with the terms VP, President, CEO, etc... Especially when it comes to projects like Debian.
