I'm all for the contact form. Anything that spreads the responsibility out is good though. I still feel bad that Jeff and all the past presidents did so much. And I think it contributed significantly to burn out. Working on spreading out these responsibilities is good both fit the board members and for OSGeo's long term viability.

I'll try to forward, in case someone is contacting president or another person directly, using this generic address. I'm also forwarding people to proper mailing lists, when they are asking. Not that I would have problem with that, but there seems to be no backup in case of vacation or so...
