-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 For nm.debian.org, at 2024-06-28: I support Philip Wyett <philip.wy...@kathenas.org>'s request to become a Debian Developer, uploading. I have worked with Philip Wyett on as he has helped people prepare packages submitted to mentors.debian.net over the past couple of months and I consider them as having sufficient technical competence.
In the past, I have often observed that people submit packages to mentors.debian.net without receiving any feedback or assistance. Several months ago I noticed that Philip was making a determined effort to respond to each submission with feedback and pointers to get the package into proper shape for inclusion in Debian. I found his feedback to be helpful and technically accurate, and I also found his approach to be respectful and encouraging, something that is particularly important when working with someone who is new to Debian packaging and sometimes overwhelmed or intimidated by the process. Once Philip felt the package was ready for inclusion in Debian he would indicate that with a post to the mentors mailing list requesting that a DD look at sponsoring it. I found this helpful because it allowed me to get involved when the package had already gone through a review, requiring less of my time. I am encouraged that Philip has been willing to spend time on a critical task in Debian that hasn't received sufficient attention in the past. I think he will be of even more assistance on mentors.debian.net when he has full upload rights himself. I have personally worked with Philip Wyett <philip.wy...@kathenas.org> (key 70A0AC45AC779EFE84F63AED724AA9B52F024C8B) for the last two months, and I know Philip Wyett can be trusted to be a full member of Debian, and have unsupervised, unrestricted upload rights, right now. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEJKVN2yNUZnlcqOI+wufLJ66wtgMFAmZ/KqsACgkQwufLJ66w tgN7BA/+O/bSH28o8dd12vEfpy2z8uJMEHcKqk390SZqo0vUEam+xY9yzS1jkL5W Ho6RTwfgoI2roCL8aPXJviqNxtT3s5bqNBkW8vfU/molFqk4I3yB75g1963R7bv/ eYN6cD4q63EjupPtnH2jBPaD3G6TN/U0qb3gu3je9aUMI8xcy2vbI//R5M+YOjA9 Kcgk7sbndfvKD+x+YpjfndX5b9onkB7/kT2p9sgPaagUbKDHU8afIyYDd0/Qgdqr MPrefQhdlAkPWtmuQ/NLgDnCRGj0p9dDRUGsZr4EWwaNmP4J5bnWlrW5W1X13efK WFJ+eajiMq2QVUKWnbEUUWbTMp5TFfVoaeVUTkoKMPoLSCISCeGOuzMwiePrJxrd HzyRcwydGsqHDRbZ2jqCWC2SbsUJI5J5mc6EkpSWS03UWx4bBwURfRRX9t+zLGgG vRIsw+tyv+pAO1MIq06yzS+EykhxOjXcpdVoCw7HAk1OGtjXP3WKTiRMQo3lPX+R eOY+LAxHy1X8DT5bYthzz/Hy2hgWbm4uO78vmRj6Lr1u5LfE2sliX3kHJ6ClVmbm 0as3aK6k4x2hGO0rAGit0zLJ7JMqvW2hW2XD1ha0ukglgqCUKzyaKqdwkTkaBLYq wTqbBsQp/SGYcwcdbgc2tpw1QWmY73h9Ia4XTBkLQAJk3wu5WZg= =x9QA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Soren Stoutner (via nm.debian.org) For details and to comment, visit https://nm.debian.org/process/1305/ -- https://nm.debian.org/process/1305/
