Hi,
Taking the case of a "vaguely related" Project like Cordova:
It seems, the Vice President of such project would be a board member, so
are you (or is there anybody else) happy to act as VP for DeviceMap?
Should be no big deal to put a template like this into the Wiki and then
adjust it to what DeviceMap does.
Are there paragraphs we must not provide because they are filled by the
board or Meeting anyway?

If you are there Monday already, it would be a pleasure if you could at
least attend my DeviceMap talk. Depending on who else does if there are
questions, especially people who could be interested to participate, you
may be in a better position for some, especially administrative ones.
Thanks,
Werner
