Report for new developer applicant: Aaron Lehmann I'm happy to report that Aaron Lehmann has satisfied the requirements for the application to become a Debian maintainer. A summary of the completed NM steps follows.
Identification -------------- The applicant has sent the following GPG key: pub 1024D/AE895899 2000-02-16 Aaron Lehmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> sub 1024g/9C7EE404 2000-02-16 This key is signed by a Debian developer, Joey Hess <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Philosophy and Procedures ------------------------- The applicant has read the DFSG and the Social Contract, and has shown that he understands the basic issues behind the DFSG. He is able to explain why a package must go in non-free when the license allows free redistribution and modification, but prohibits distribution for commercial use, and he's also able to explain why a Debian-specific exception granted by the upstream author would not ratify this situation. Furthermore, the applicant has also shown familiarity with Debian procedures, being currently a maintainer of several packages via a Debian sponsor. Tasks and Skills ---------------- The applicant is currently an active maintainer (via a Debian sponsor) of the packages pngcrush, gtkgraph, and gtk-theme-switch, and intends to adopt the package xkoules. He is very familiar with the BTS and uses it on a regular basis. Furthermore, he is already subscribed to the debian-devel list and regularly contributes to it. Summary ------- The applicant has already been contributing to Debian and has shown himself to uphold the philosophy behind Debian; hence, I highly recommend him to be accepted as a new Debian maintainer.
