Hey desktopers,

I've worked with Daniel for a long time and I'm confident that he can be 
trusted with access to the desktop set. He demonstrated high quality 
work on our different desktop environments over the year, is one of our 
top upstream contributors to GNOME and understands the Ubuntu 
cycles/community/processes (SRU, freezes, ...). He's already actively 
working on our desktop packages on launchpad and salsa and having direct

Knowing Daniel for many years now, and while I haven’t sponsored his 
work in the recent years, I have no doubt in his integration skills and 
carefulness work, testing and impact analyses before proceeding any 
uploads to the archive. I’m fully trusting him he will apply the same

I have worked with Amin on the Canonical Desktop team. Amin has worked
beyond his core job responsibility of maintaining Firefox to also help
maintain many of the Ubuntu Desktop packages in Ubuntu. He gained some
experience from working on a poppler transition recently and has done
many merges for packages where we have changes compared to Debian. I
trust him now with upload rights to the Ubuntu Desktop set.

Thank you,

Hey Amin,

+1 from me for you ubuntu-desktop applications. The desktop uploads you 
recently worked on and that I've recently reviewed were high quality. 
You have been working on a variety of packages in the desktop set, 
handled transitions and are familiar with the Ubuntu processes (freezes, 
SRU, ...). I trust you to ask for advice/review before uploading in case 
that would be needed.

I apply to the ubuntu-desktop team members for becoming a member of the 
team.


I have been around since 2010, and my contributions have mostly been 
related somehow to the internationalization of the desktop, such as the 
tools for setting language and locales, fonts, keyboard layouts/input 
methods, spellcheck dictionaries, and the translation infrastructure. 
I'm also keeping up the Ubuntu flavor of the desktop guide (Help).


My work has led me to get involved in quite a few packages, and more 
often than not I'm targeting packages in the ubuntu-desktop packageset. 
Via PPU:s and a personal packageset I have upload rights to a few of them:


https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/packagesets/eoan/personal-gunnarhj

but often I need to ask for sponsorship.

As a member of ubuntu-desktop I would be able to contribute more 
efficiently and save some time for the developers. But please note that, 
if you would grant me membership, you wouldn't get rid of my prompts for 
reviews completely. ;) I'm self-educated in computing, and my knowledge 
about programming, packaging, etc. is fragmentary. The good news is that 
I'm aware of my limitations, and have gained a feeling for when I should 
consult with someone and/or ask for review, and when I'm sure enough to

Yes, +1 from me.

It's true that the Canonical team is a bit fragmented between a few
different projects these days. Some of us are still trying to keep the
distro / GNOME end up, and I appreciate your assistance here.

Application for ~ubuntu-desktop membership

2016-08-10 Thread Jeremy Bicha
I'd like to re-apply for membership in ~ubuntu-desktop. I was a member
a few years ago but I deactivated my upload memberships when I knew I
wasn't going to use my upload rights for a while.

I am a MOTU and member of ~ubuntu-gnome-dev. I originally got involved
in the Desktop team with the switch to GNOME 3 when I saw that there
was work that needed to be done and that I could help do it. In some
ways, it's still like that since the Canonical Desktop team is very
busy developing Unity 8 with less time available to maintain the GNOME
bits.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bicha
