This is patently false as
http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/show/google/gci2010/debian/t128985930296
shows "Contact: LucasNussbaum", so the project is explicitly associated
with Lucas and actually calls on interested parties to contact him.

I find it worrysome that you think it's OK to name other people,
volunteers, as a contact for projects they didn't initiate. This has
nothing to do with bureaucracy but with common courtesy.
You basically assign them work; my Debian time is limited and I'd
appreciate it if I would be able to choose where to spend it on. This goes
double if you do this in the context of a high-visibility initiative in
which Debian "officially" participates.
If you disagree I would propose that you do not co-ordinate such Google
Code events in the future.
