A task can refer to just about any project activity.
The length can be short or long, the number of resources can be few or many, and the cost can be quite variable. For the most part, project team members associate the term tasks things they're individually responsible for.
For example, a project manager has the task of creating the project plan. But this task can require gathering a lot information from a lot of people. Each interaction with these people is a task unto itself. And the information required from these people might require that they each be assigned tasks to pull together the necessary materials.
There are many tasks that need to be done to keep the project flowing. With the tasks being well-defined, the hope is that various people will be able to assist to carry out the tasks and so not rely on a couple of individuals to do all the work.
There are no roles for "leadership" of technical areas. These are "functional tasks".
This is not intended to put pressure on people to force them to do work nor "pull their weight". If they do not manage to do a task, then someone else will be able to do it. Of course, shared load means a healthy project.
Most tasks are not too onerous. For example, for the "Documentation Coordination", the only job might be to publish the documentation every Friday. Sure it can be done at other times and other people can do it too, but at least it gets done once per week.
Having a person doing a task does not mean that everyone can leave it to them and rely on them. Anyone else can dive in and do the job (for example, publish the docs twice per week). The more people who are familiar with the task, the better. Perhaps the person who is primarily doing that task will notice that there can be improvements to how they are doing it.
If a person is dissatisfied with the way a particular task is being done then find a way to offer constructive criticism, perhaps by assisting or by enhancing the task documentation.
Most of the tasks (except of course the Developer tasks) can only be carried out by PMC members because commit access is required
