My personal opinion is that you guys should swap and give Justin (or someone else who's interested) the opportunity for a year. One thing the project needs is good bench strength if anything were to happen that would limit someone's involvement. I'd be concerned with the prospect of Adobe pulling funding for Alex, and then him having a hard time justifying the time.
Overall having two people equally competent to chair the project ensures that we reduce the risk of having the chair need to step down and nobody stepping into the place. I think having Alex help a second chair hit the ground running and ensure the project's continuity would be a really good thing at this point in time. In the future switching every year might be overkill, but right now I think training up a second chair would be really good for the project.
