   doesn't imply that to me. i'm a contact person for 
some things, but definitely not the leader. i've seen 
groups in action where leaders pop up out of the group 
at random points--i use the term "musical dictators" 
to describe the phenomenon: the more each person gets 
to be a leader for a little while, the better. 
   i still don't understand an objection to allowing 
an optional contact field. it seems handy for improved 
understanding of the event (in some cases) as well as 
the possibility of finding out more about the group 
or negotiating use of resources.
