for whatever it's worth, two proto-DDs are waiting on final DAM keyring addition--wait, no, they both completed the process since this morning [0][1]. i can only speak for one of them, but i've watched debian for twenty years now, and find it just as romantic and as necessary in 2022 as it was in 2000. if i didn't think so, i wouldn't have gone through the NM process. if i didn't have plans for its future, and didn't believe it possible to see real change effected in this most legendary of distros, i wouldn't be as proud to become a DD today as i am. the existence or non- of a coc had no impact on my desire to join. the dream of radically changing the installer[2] seen by millions of people did. anecdotal, of course, but there you go. --hack on, nick [0] https://nm.debian.org/process/934/ [1] https://nm.debian.org/process/976/ [2] https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2021/09/msg00344.html -- nick black -=- https://www.nick-black.com to make an apple pie from scratch, you need first invent a universe.
