Description Wayne Beaton

I infrequently get requests from people to connect with a project's leads.

Some organizations are new to open source and are not ready to have their questions and comments in the public record. Giving these organizations a means of connecting with a project gives the project leads an opportunity to educate these organizations and ease them into open source. 

TL;DR: this grows our field of potential participants and contributors.

The list would have to allow anybody to send mail, not be archived, and be automatically updated to include only those individuals who are designated as project leads in the database.
