Idea - official UFO: AI Spokesman / Head Hunter

Hello,
I would like to share with you with my idea for new job in ufo: ai team.
What such person should be responsible for:
Promoting Ufo: AI in internet - on various forums (with answering to user questions) and sites. This includes monthly updates and information about official releases.
Creating and publishing job offers for new programmers/artists/testers etc.
Requirements for this job:
Good skills with english language (would be great if such person would know another languages).
Good writing skills.
Close to development team - such person should know vision and roadmap for ufo: ai project. Also should know what to include in monthly updates (development team should help in this)
Ability to run wip releases - for taking screenshots/recording videos of new features
Free time for doing it
Monthly updates and information about new releases:
should include screenshots and videos (if it's possible) of new features. I think its more interesting to people than pure text.
should be prepared once and pasted everywhere where topics was created
Examples of places to post monthly updates and information about new releases:
moddb (there is already ufo: ai there, but information is outdated)
retro remakes forum (i started topic there:
http://retroremakes.com/forum/index.php/topic,614.0.html
)
strategy core forum
http://www.strategycore.co.uk/forums/
xcomufo forum
http://www.xcomufo.com/forums/
tigsource forum
http://forums.tigsource.com/
freegamedev forum
http://forum.freegamedev.net/
Would be also nice, if information about official releases could also be included on main pages (not only on forums) of those sites (like
http://news.retroremakes.com/
,
http://tigsource.com/
,
http://www.strategycore.co.uk/
). This would require asking those sites redactors.
Examples of places to look for new programmers/artists:
http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/forum.asp?forum_id=8
http://www.devmaster.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=43
http://blenderartists.org/forum/index.php
http://forum.freegamedev.net/index.php?t=thread&frm_id=7
http://sourceforge.net/people/
Example of updates and looking for help from parpg project (google for parpg and you will find many more sites where they are announcing/looking for help):
http://forum.freegamedev.net/index.php?t=msg&th=2315
So... What do you think? Does it makes sense? Could ufo: ai benefit from this? I would like to hear especially voice from dev team.
And most important - would someone be interested in taking such job?
