For nm.debian.org, at 2017-08-25:
After looking at Michael Hudson-Doyle 's
contributions and after exchanging some emails to get to know him a bit better,
I agree with the advocates that Michael can and should indeed be a Debian
Developer, uploading right now.

Michael Hudson-Doyle's bio:

I'm Michael Hudson-Doyle, born and raised in the UK but living in New Zealand
for the last 9.5 years. I first installed GNU/Linux in (I think) 1998 -- it was
Redhat Linux 5, and if I remember right, I just missed the pain of the
transition from libc5 to glibc. Ancient history! I had a bit of a dabble with
OS X on my personal machines for a while, but I've been linux only for a long
while now.

I've worked for Canonical for over 10 years now but I've only really been doing
a lot of packaging/Ubuntu work for the last 3 or 4 years.

Part of my reason for wanting to work more on Debian is work-related, as
obviously Ubuntu is mostly Debian and making Debian better makes Ubuntu better.
Making changes in Ubuntu only is both technically and morally (if that's the
right word) painful. I always want to fix problems in the right place, whether
that's upstream or Debian or wherever! On a more personal level, I'm committed
to the idea of free software and Debian is obviously one of the beacons of the
whole movement.

In Debian, my main areas of interest are related to Go and Python; I already
maintain the golang compiler packages in Debian and Ubuntu and want to help
more with the ecosystem of packages in both languages (this is one of the
reasons why DM status is a little frustrating: updating one package may require
updating a few others and requesting sponsorship of each change or upload
rights for each package adds friction to the whole process). I don't really
have any specific goals beyond keeping these packages usefully current but who
knows where my interests will take me :-)

For nm.debian.org, at 2017-08-25
I would like to apply to change my status in Debian to Debian Developer,
uploading.
I have worked on many packages for the Debian Med team for a while and I would
like to be able to upload new bioinformatics packages on my own.

Christopher Knadle: Advocate

2017-08-25 Thread Gregor Herrmann

[Advocacy statement for nm.debian.org, 2017-08-25]

I fully support Christopher Knadle 's request to
become a full project member as an uploading Debian Developer.

2 years ago already I advocated Chris' DM application:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-newmaint/2015/05/msg00010.html
and what I wrote there still holds, i.e. he does excellent technical work in
a cooperative way.

Since then, I granted Chris upload rights for mumble, and as I was and am
still subscribed to the package in tracker, I could follow him taking care
of the package in all necessary aspects: new upstream releases, keeping the
packaging side up to date, fixing bugs, interacting with bug reporters and
upstream, investigating difficult corner cases, etc.

I also noted that Chris had an eye at mumble's dependencies and helped out
there when problems arose, and that he always tries to support other Debian
contributors wherever he can.

Additionally we've been in contact via email and met at several DebConfs,
where our chats always should me that Chris shares Debian values and has
the necessary technical and social skills to become an uploading DD.

Therefor I support Christopher Knadle 's (key
885AEADC783E1F842E97B82F1E759A726A9FDD74) application and confirm that I
believe he can be trusted to be a full member of Debian, and have
unsupervised, unrestricted upload rights, right now.



Cheers,
gregor
