Key signing is *not* about the quality of your your work, but solely about *identifying* of you. Personally I require not only that you show me your passport, but that we spend some time together to get to know each other a bit - e.g. an hour of working on some project together or eating lunch together. You are quite welcome to pass by my home in Mørkøv, Denmark, or to reach me at other places when I go travelling. Each individual choose personally the requirements of trusting identification, but the (very!) common approach includes physically meeting and presenting a government issued identity paper. I very strongly recommend against asking for key signing in unusual ways, especially when you are new to the concept: Follow common practice! I hesitate more about advocating you, because that is about supporting your claims about being skilled technically, and really I feel I know you too little yet to judge your skills. Don't get me wrong: I do not say that your skills are weak, only that I cannot really judge if they are, so it would be wrong of me to advocate you: There is more to advocating than a Facebook "Like" button :-) I sincerely hope that those you've worked closely with agree with your own judgement of skill level and will advocate you, and that you become a Debian Maintainer as you want.
