Except me!
Basically, the volunteer policy tries to draw a line between what staff do, and what volunteers do. It also tries to to make everything as open as possible: for example, releasing financial statements and reports openly on the wiki, even if they make for dull reading. That makes sure that volunteers are still at the very heart of WMUK, and keeps me where I should be - off to one side, doing all the paperwork.
For example: it's not my job at WMUK to give media interviews, although I will if no volunteers are available. What would be much better is to have volunteers trained to do media interviews - WMUK's job is to make sure that training happens.
Hope this makes sense!
