Hello:
I hereby request permission to try to package fdk-aac 2.0.1. This
package also includes libfdk-aac-dev, which currently references
Bug#915386.
My motivation for joining the Multimedia Team is solely the completion
of another Debian Bug#907576. I do not foresee much involvement with
the Multimedia Team beyond maintaining fdk-aac. 907576 requires the
newer libfdk-aac-dev 2.0.0, and thus my request to join you.
My prior experience in Debian is limited to working on Bug#907576 for
another team. Note that I am not an official Debian Maintainer on any
Team.
As instructed by your 'How to Join' page, I have created a Salsa
account and subscribed to the Multimedia mailing list. I have
previously filed a few Debian bugs. As for reviewing others work, I do
not believe I am qualified.
I have previously read most of the Debian packaging procedures while
working on Bug907576. I am currently digesting the contents of the
Multimedia Teams 'DevelopPackaging' page.
I will be clicking on the Team's 'Request to Join' page sometime after
I send this email.
In addition to the above packaging procedures, I will start work by
examining the current fdk-acc 1.6 on the theory it may provides some
clues for packaging 2.0.1.
For anyone who may be interested, I invite suggestions or help in
packaging fdk-aac 2.0.1.
Thank you,
Garie Miller
