[aur-general] TU Application - Felix Yan
Dear archers, I was looking for a sponsor in August 2012 [1], and thank Jonathan Steel for contacting me right after he became a new TU. He helps me a lot and I'm keeping clean up and improve my PKGBUILDs in AUR with his suggestions. I think I can do more than as a user, so I am now applying to become a Trusted User, after some knowledge skills preparing in the last few weeks. Bartłomiej Piotrowski has kindly sponsored me (just today :P and thanks a lot). I love Arch mainly because of the PKGBUILD. Never could I find another great and simple-enough to write description file of an easy-to-use package manager. I never created a successful package in .deb although I was a Ubuntu and PPA user for more than two years(Hmm, my lack of knowledge in bash English should also be a problem at that time). When I began to use Arch, I was impressed deeply by pacman(A lot of points are in ILoveCandy, although :P) and that's why I switched all my workspaces to Arch. I have been an Archer only for one year and a half but 4 for the Linux world. I submitted my first package by the end of last year, and maintain more and more during the last a few months (61 for now [2], with a total of 460 votes). I am eager to maintain packages that loved and needed by Chinese users as I am one too, such as input methods(fcitx-*, ibus-*, sunpinyin, libpinyin, rime, etc), internet supplicant in Chinese universities(mentohust/ruijieclient), chat tools qq related(linuxqq, webqq, libqq*, etc) and popular proxy tools (sshuttle, goagent, etc). As I am a python programmer and maintaining more than 20 python libraries I use for now, I'm also ready for some popular python libraries. I'll take those orphans in [community] (or possibly [extra] if approved and moved) in these cases, too. I am also a good user in keeping active in reporting and following issues upstream, such as pidgin-lwqq [3]. As I looked after more and more packages on AUR I found many users not so convenient to install so many packages in AUR, so I joined archlinuxcn's community repository project [4] to provide popular packages in binary. But this is not good for user to involve in (such as flag out-of-date, report bugs, etc). It could be a lot better if I could move the most popular ones into [community] so users does not need to manually add a (not fully-trusted) third-party community repository. I am also an IT manager in work, and maintaining several Arch servers. I only use x86_64 architecture but keep an eye on i686 as some of the old hardwares are not ready for 64-bit. I have several popular WM/DEs installed but using XFCE mostly. I am a wine user and keep an eye on its fresh news. Although I am not using any wine programs too much, I sometimes play osu! or TESV: Skyrim under wine. Some more info about me: 21, male, Wuhan in China, working in a startup, not very good at C and English, but trying to keep them in a package-ready level :P A classical music lover, and also accept some of the NewAge. Thank you for your time in reading my application.

Re: [aur-general] TU Application - Felix Yan
Thanks for applying to become a TU. Hopefully this will sort out the ibus packages. :) Your AUR packages look ok, IMO. The quoting of strings and variables is slightly inconsistent, but this happens to the best of us. Vim or emacs? Best of luck! --- Cordially, Alexander Rødseth Arch Linux Trusted User (xyproto on IRC, trontonic on AUR)

I am only a beginner in vim and not yet used emacs, so It's not appropriate for me to judge which is better :P In my daily coding (Python mainly), I am using Sublime Text 2, and Geany/Eclipse before I bought a ST2 license myself. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
