Hi CD Team, I've decided to try my best to maintain syslinux. I've just had a short conversation with Steve and Cyril on irc and we have agreed that I should join the Debian CD team and make syslinux a team maintained package.
I've only worked on Debian packages for about half a year now, but I feel comfortable with git-buildpackage, debhelper and friends by now :) . I've mostly been active in the pkg-security team so far and I was looking for another interesting area I could start contributing to. I like playing around with "low level" stuff (I'm very happy about my X230 that uses coreboot and has the management engine removed). While I don't use syslinux extensively, I have a few use cases (and also problems [1]), and I'm also looking forward to expand my knowledge with this new task. I'm always happy to receive any helpful advice/critique, so let me know when I'm doing something wrong or you have a better idea for $foo. I'll need your help getting new versions of syslinux uploaded soon enough, since I'm not a DD (but probably a DM soon [2]). Cheers Lukas [1] https://bugs.debian.org/803938 [2] https://nm.debian.org/process/303
