If you'd agree to play the role, I'll happily nominate you "representative" :). 
The thing they need there is someone to explain how upstreaming patches works, 
the architecture and possibilities of Qemu and a friendly face so they want to 
approach us with their patches.

Since at least the ARM patches would go through your hands either way, you 
already do fulfill half of what they need. You know about the processes, so you 
also fulfill the other half. Now the only piece left is the friendly face and I 
hope you'll manage with that one too :).
