-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi all,
I've just given my approval as an AM to my second DD candidate. Though, I'm hoping to get some clarification on on writing AM reports to ensure that future DDs are not going to be held up by any mistakes on my part. On nm.d.o, when you select "AM approved" for an application's progress, a template for the AM report is presented. It is explicitly stated that this will not be automatically emailed. So it is surprising to see an email sent on your behalf sent to debian-newmaint.[0] The first time, it produced a mostly empty mail. [1] So, I wrote a "proper" AM report to debian-newmaint. The second time, it pulled the "Short Biography" from n.d.o for use of the "Applicant background." [2] Which is better, but the template implies that my AM report should also include an "Identification & Account Data" section. Do I need to follow this generated mail up with one of my own? nm.d.o also tells you that you should email the mbox of correspondence regarding the application to [email protected] along with minechangelog output. As both are available as links on the applicants page, is this still necessary? It seems clear, that the aim is to eventually replace as much paper-work as possible with automation via nm.d.o, which is great. It's just unclear what is necessary for AM reports until that goal is reached.
