Yes. Travelling and speaking is one of the key tasks of the DPL (as I see it), and something I explicitly considered before agreeing to nominate. My employer also employs other Debian Developers, so is aware of (and understands the implications of) my running for DPL. > How do you see your other responsibilities within Debian suffering as a > result of you being elected DPL? Why is Debian better served by having > you as DPL rather than in your current role? My current role in Debian is simply as a maintainer of some fairly average packages. I do not see my maintainership of those packages suffering at all from my being elected DPL. By being DPL, Debian would gain from my public speaking experience and management abilities. I expect my relative independence will also prove valuable while Debian works through the various problems raised during this election. -- - Gus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
