These seem pretty well tangled up together.

There's some more roles outside the technical issues that relate to=20
Values #1 (encourage participation by Squeakers of all levels) and #3=20
(grow the Squeak community and increase its visibility).

7. Guide of community organization. We need someone to coordinate the=20
various efforts in the Squeak community so that we can involve as=20
many people as possible. We've mentioned a number of ways this can=20
happen, but it needs some kind of visible structure so people can=20
volunteer to do things.

8. Guide of external relations. We need someone to announce releases=20
to the outside world, prepare press releases, make sure that Squeak=20
is listed and current on the various software catalogs (not=20
necessarily do this themselves, but make sure it gets done), etc.
