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
access should make things easier for everyone.
+1 from me!
Cheers,
Sébastien Bacher

Hi desktoppers,
I would like to be considered for membership in the ubuntu-desktop team.
Starting as a Linux user in the 1990s, I moved to Ubuntu around about 2007. In
2011 I started contributing to the Unity desktop and was asked to join
Canonical. In 2012 I joined the Canonical Desktop team as the full time
maintainer of Compiz underlying the Unity desktop. In 2013 I moved onto the Mir
team and stayed there until 2017 when I returned to the Canonical Desktop team
where I remain today.
Throughout this time I've had countless uploads sponsored, and have remained
the top (human) contributor to bug management karma in Ubuntu for most of a
decade.
Being able to upload packages myself would remove the biggest delay I
experience in my daily work and make the whole team slightly more efficient.
Thanks for your consideration...
- Daniel
