Updating the FTP Master delegation
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256
Dear fellow developers,
As per Debian Constitution §8, I hereby appoint the following developers
as FTP Masters:
- - Thorsten Alteholz (alteholz)
- - Ansgar Burchardt (ansgar)
- - Joerg Jaspert (joerg)
- - Luke W. Faraone (lfaraone)
- - Mark Hymers (mhy)
Any previous Debian Policy delegation not explicitly listed above is
revoked. The delegation is not time-limited and will be effective until
further changes by present or future Project Leaders.
Task Description
- ----------------
FTP Masters, commonly referred to as "ftpmaster", oversee and maintain
the well-being of Debian's official package repositories. FTP Masters
are responsible for tasks that include:
- - Running the archive, maintaining the corresponding infrastructure
(e.g. the tools used for processing uploaded packages and the tools
used to move packages across suites).
- - Supporting the Release Managers, ensuring that packages move across
releases properly, according to the rules defined by the Release
Managers.
- - Accepting and rejecting packages that enter the NEW and byhand queues.
- - Maintaining the state of packages and the archive via priority and
section override files.
- - Maintaining the software used to run the archive, namely the Debian
Archive Kit (dak)
Appendix
- --------
* More info about the Policy team can be found on the Debian wiki:
https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/FTPMaster
* The FTP team has also recently grown to include a number of "FTP
trainees" who have access to a subset of tasks of a full FTP master.
Whilst their efforts are obviously greatly appreciated, they do not
require a delegation.
Best wishes,
- --
