Policy and Procedures
---------------------

Francois and I discussed the Social Contract and the DFSG. He
demonstrated to me that he understands the principles and extent of
these documents, and that he is aware of the responsibilities of a
debian maintainer. He also explicitly agreed to abide by the DMUP. He
also answered some questions on copyrights and licenses to my
satisfaction. 

Policy and Procedures Check Passed

Tasks and Skills
----------------

Francois has packaged gnutrition, a nutrition analysis software
written for Gnome. I looked through the package, and was satisfied
with its quality. It is lintian clean. His advocate is Ryan Goldbeck,
and he had this to say of Francois:

I have known Frank for about a year now.  We have worked together and
attended school together.  He is a very capable coder and an avid Free
Software supporter.  He is an ideal candidate to become a Debian
Developer because of these equalities.

\end{quote}

Note: equalities (sic) in quote above.

All in all, I think Francois shows the skills necessary to be a debian
developer and will make a good addition to the debian developer
community.
