Maybe it's too late, but I'd add/change a couple:

* arch      : project lead

* herald    : use this instead of 'user'.  people wearing our cloak are at
              least implicitly advocates, and these people are often
              answering a lot of questions for newbies in IRC.

I also think sourcemage/mage is kind of redundant-looking, but I don't know
if it's worth trying to find something else.
