Hi, I was reading this month's "New Debian Developers and Maintainers" article[1] at "Bits from Debian" and noticed that in this year's March and April, only new DDs where accepted - there isn't a single DM in the list. As I've applied for a DM myself[2] in April, I took a look at other applications and figured that there are other ones from March[3] that weren't accepted as well.
So, I would like to ask: has the process of accepting new DMs stalled? If so, does this has a relationship with the "Newmaint: Call for help!" section in the last "Bits from the DPL"[4] that was published yesterday, regarding its unification with the Debian New Member Front Desk (nm.d.o)?
