Gergely is unfortunately not as involved in Debian anymore as he used to be (I think his girlfriend is a large distraction ;), but he's still contributing important work, such as dpatch, which I use myself. You (Branden) are certainly very enthusiastic as well, as for example seen by your -legal mails; I never disputed this. Since you asked, let me raise a concern, though. I am wondering if you have enough time to act as DPL. In fact, your presentation of the situation does not correspond to the impression I have. In http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200403/msg00052.html you said that, "In order to accept the added responsibilities of Project Leader, I have resigned as SPI Treasurer". As DPL, I tried to get you as SPI Treasurer reimburse various Debian people for months, without any success. Also, someone mailed [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] recently, asking why their "significant contribution to support Debian" has not been accepted and why they had not received their acknowledgment letter yet (needed for tax purposes). From my experience, you have neglected the Treasurer role for months, rather than given it up to make more time in case you get elected as DPL. -- Martin Michlmayr [EMAIL PROTECTED]
