Dear DAM
With this writing I want to thank Norbert Preining for his efforts and
results of making KDE Plasma and applications available in Debian.
Several years ago releases of KDE Plasma, applications, etc in Debian
were significantly delayed with respect to upstream releases. Norbert
managed to decreases this delay by a magnitude, even such that KDE
Plasma for Debian was made available before the release of KDE Neon!
Next to this, the quality of his packages were at highest levels. In the
occurance of bugs a mail to Norbert was sufficient and almost by return
e-mail solved. Nobert served my and many others very well, his
communication was clear and swift.
Unfortunately Norbert communicated that he has been demoted and as a
result felt that he should leave Debian and its community.
Looking at the results achieved and his track record, seen from my
perspective, I would appreciate very much, if Nobert´s work could be
continued for Debian. With this I kindly ask you to do your utmost best
to make this happen!
Thank you very much,
