Well, db.d.o is back up, and has been for a while. Some of the applicants awaiting DAM approval have received updates to their application status page. However, since db.d.o has returned the list of those awaiting DAM approval continues to grow. Additionally, some of those waiting the longest still have no visible update to their application. There are still people that according to their application status page have been waiting on the DAM for well over a year.
Something still needs to be done about the excessive delay and silence of the DAM approval stage. Currently 53 applicants waiting for DAM approval 2000-01-27 - Goswin von Brederlow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=brederlo%40informatik.uni-tuebingen.de 2000-12-17 - Eray Ozkural <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=erayo%40cs.bilkent.edu.tr * DAM Comment: Have asked applicant to get 5 sponsors. has RC bug [tbm, 2003-07-24] 2001-01-24 - Dwayne Litzenberger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=dlitz%40dlitz.net * DAM Comment: needs a package, offered complete re-do because of age of application [tbm, 2003-07-24] he agrees, will get in contact when he has some packages [tbm] 2001-03-11 - Beiad Dalton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=idalton%40ferret.dyndns.org * DAM Comment: Need to call; mailed. bounced; resent to yet another address. 2001-07-06 has RC bug open for over 250 days; has been made aware of it, but doesn't seem to care [tbm] 2001-06-02 - Fredrik Liljegren <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=fredrik%40liljegren.org * DAM Comment: tbm is looking at this applicant for me. has no package in the archive [tbm] still no package, offered complete re- do [tbm, 2003-07-24] told him to look for sponsor [tbm, 2003-08-09] 2001-08-30 - Gustavo Franco <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=stratus%40acm.org 2001-09-24 - Tommy Moore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=stp1800%40earthlink.net * DAM Comment: no package, offered complete re-do [tbm, 2003-07-24] is ok with that, I asked to get sponsor [tbm, 2003-07-27] 2001-10-24 - Marc Horowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=marc%40mit.edu * DAM Comment: needs a package in the archive [tbm] 2001-11-14 - Sam Clegg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=samc%40superduper.net 2001-12-16 - Michael Nelson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=cerberus%40kobayashimaru.org * DAM Comment: has no package in the archive. asked if still interested [tbm] yes, will produce package [tbm, 2003-03-18] still no package, contact him again [tbm, 2003-07-24] apparently has something now; let's wait for details [tbm, 2003-08-12] 2001-12-17 - Juan Alvarez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=jalvarez%40fluidsignal.com * DAM Comment: has 2 RC bugs [tbm, 2003-08-01] He said he's preparing updated [tbm, 2003-08-09] 2001-12-30 - Andrew Lau <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=netsnipe%40debianplanet.org * DAM Comment: Getting a 2nd opinion by joerg [tbm] joerg said he asked to be put on hold [tbm] 2002-01-04 - Robert Jordens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=rjo%40gmx.de 2002-01-30 - Manfred Wassmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=mw030730%40debian.developer.homeunix.org * DAM Comment: Needs clarification WRT DMUP by phone 2002-02-17 - Daniel Dent <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=ddent%40vc.bc.ca * DAM Comment: Have to call him also needs a package in the archive [tbm, 2003-07-24] 2002-03-18 - David Caldwell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=david%40porkrind.org * DAM Comment: 1 RC bug, 1 NMU; new upstream available, asked what's up [tbm, 2003-08-01] no response yet [tbm, 2003-08-09] 2002-03-29 - Francois Marier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=fmarier%40uwaterloo.ca 2002-04-09 - Uwe Steinmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=uwe.steinmann%40mmk-hagen.de * DAM Comment: Needs more T&S, asked Joerg to re-do [tbm] 2002-04-22 - Brian Furry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=fbrian%40nac.net * DAM Comment: Needs a sponsored package in the archive [tbm] done.
