The duties of the LinuxChix Coordinators, known as the Tres Chix, are to encourage participation in LinuxChix and ensure that it remains a safe and welcoming community for women in Linux.
Keep LinuxChix on track and ensure that it remains true to its vision.
Encourage volunteers, manage communication, direct traffic. Prevent anyone from becoming a gatekeeper.
Keep track of who's supposed to be doing what, and if someone vanishes, organise a replacement.
Delegate: make sure there are enough volunteers to take care of the organization.
Lay down the law if contentious issues come up: ultimately the coordinators are the last stop in any dispute resolution chain, the ones responsible for fixing problems.
Be the public face of Linuxchix.
