Mediate Small disputes to remove the need to vote on every issue

The Coordinator is simply a figure head and does not have the power to dictate policy, if mediation cannot be reached on a conflicting issue then it is taken to a vote. No issue has to be brought to the Coordinator. All developers are free to start a vote without consulting the Coordinator. His role is an advisory one.


Provide a contact point for media and 3rd party project relations

The Project Coordinator should advise and be advised of major news announcements and be free to provide interviews, and or conduct meetings on behalf of the project with any 3rd party such as other Free Software Projects, Businesses and Universities. The PC has the responsibility to keep track of these events and advise the community of new developments. All developers have the freedom to grant interviews, establish relationships with other projects and organizations.

Provide quarterly status updates regarding all major activities of the project

The PC will provide reports as to the project status due on Jan 1st, April 1st, July 1st, and Oct 1st

Conduct regular meetings with the other Coordinators and developers in the ReactOS Project

The PC will make a good faith effort to meet monthly via IRC, email exchange or VoIP with the various team coordinators to discuss any issues they feel may need to be addressed. The PC will also be obliged to be upon request conduct meetings with any other Coordinator or developer to address any issue. For developers that are limited in Internet Access the PC will make a good faith effort to keep in touch with those developers on a limited basis and seek out and address their development needs and goals.
