Cool. Sounds like an interesting agenda.

Apart from the obvious lack of the "Bludging" role in here, how about
"special" events like organising talks or Software Freedom Day things
or annual dinners at Montezumas or Open Day stalls or similar?

It might also possibly be worth considering the responsibility of
republishing talk videos and/or slides (linking them from the website,
getting them onto bittorrent and/or mirror.linux.org.au, etc).
