As a result, he advocated Debian as the base for the Norwegian Skolelinux project for school networks, on which Debian developers Tollef Fog Heen and Lars Bahner also work. He is keen to integrate Skolelinux's work on debian-installer and debian-cd back into the Debian distribution. Petter is also a SANE developer, the maintainer of Japhar, and the author of chrpath. Philosophy & Procedures ----------------------- I discussed various aspects of Debian's philosophy with Petter, and I'm satisfied that he understands and agrees with it. He has agreed to the DMUP. Tasks & Skills -------------- Petter has done substantial work already on d-i, including active work on the autopartkit partitioning tool. To me, his code both there and in chrpath looks very clean, maintainable, and careful to handle errors correctly. His advocate, Tollef Fog Heen (d-i lead) says: Petter gets things done. Lots of things, like auto-building of cd-images with d-i on them. He fixes things the right way. Petter has experience with the d-i effort and has already helped out quite a bit there. He also has hacked on debian-cd, adding support for putting the security updates onto the cd. He already knows the Debian way of doing things and I think he'll make a good DD. Recommendation -------------- I recommend that Petter be accepted as a Debian maintainer. Debian login: pere Forwarding email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
