I consider them different hats:
- the DPL gets to make certain decisions on Debian's behalf as per
the constitution
- the Debian rep to SPI has to communicate all valid decisions from
Debian to the SPI board
- the Debian advisor to SPI should offer useful support and advice to
the board to help the organisation be as successful as possible
The first is a privilege, the second is a responsibility, the third is a
bit of both. (I don't think "authoritative decisionmaker" is an accurate
description of any of those roles)
Cheers,
