Maybe I wasn't clear, I said to work on enhancements, as php5, Mysql
4/5 and so on, but not to follow up every little new technology.

Once the coordinators have decided, I can:
1) manage some bugs on one ore more apps (es. projects);
2) write down some user/dev docs;
3) use my company to sponsorize some apps or some features to add to any app;
4) once ready, I could host a app :) my little php_son.
My only problem is that sometimes I'm filled up with my company's work
and then I can't work on anything else. :(
