I think this is slightly confused.  It doesn't say whether it's the
current project leader, or forever, or what.  So, I propose this
instead:

Resolution 1999-08-12.iwj.1:
 Appointment of Debian Project Leader as Adviser to the BOD

 1. RECOGNIZING that the Debian Project plays a large and active role
 in the Free Software community, and

 2. NOTING that comments and criticism from large Free Software
 projects will enable SPI to maintain its goal of furthering the
 development of software,

 The SPI Board of Directors hereby RESOLVES that:

 3. The Debian Project Leader shall ex officio hold the position of
 Adviser to the SPI Board of directors.

 4. This applies to the current Debian Project Leader at any particular
 time, until the Board resolves otherwise.

Ian.
