I'm glad to announce here that Debian now has a new woman with a package in the archive...namely Christine Spang.
In late July, I sponsored the upload of the gquilt package, a GTK interface to quilt, the patch management system that rocks (if you use dpatch, just try quilt once, you'll be blasted). gquilt was packaged by Christine Spang, who is a d-w "member" for several months now and who most of you know for her very interesting writings in her blog, as well as a her other contributions. gquilt finally made it in the archive thanks to our ftpmasters work which means we now have a new female Debian package maintainer. In the same time, Christine applied as a New Maintainer and will hopefully go through the whole process and become a new Debian Developer in "some" months.... Christine also actively contributes to the shadow package maintenance team and, as I wrote in the advocacy I sent for her NM application, she proves there her very good team work capabilities (and a really incredible high learning speed). In short (I never can do short, I'm afraid), let's congratulate Christine and wish her the best for her future long life as a Debian contributor and developer. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
