Technical and financial decisions are two different things imho.
Technical responsability Walter is mentionning is currently typically 
one some developers are trusted to do I think.
However, the financial responsability mentionned is right now only 
limited to Jimbo and perhaps to our treasurer.

Hmmmm.
I disagree.
It is not Jimbo's job to name people. And I am not sure he would like to 
do that. The proposal should come from the person himself. Not from 
Jimbo, nor from the board. But from people.

A few questions are

* Do we have a problem with our domain names handling ?

* Is there a need to have one person in charge of this ?

* What could the job recover ?

Walter gave us his opinion on these three questions. Are there other 
opinions ?

If the first ones are fixed, next questions become

* What will the job recover ?

* Who else is interested in doing this ?
