If once Same for me... My application was accepted in September, I applied in June - the only thing missing is the account. I have 8 packages waiting to be uploaded, one more to overtake from the current maintainer (he could/would sponsor it, but I prefer to wait till I'm "legally" in Debian) - all of them are actively maintained, used etc. but aren't in Debian per se. Before somebody steps forward and claims that I'm whining, I'm not - it's just a bit discouraging. We read many speeches here about taking part in the community life, contributing to Debian instead of talking, whining etc. - but it's rather hard to contribute anything when the doors are closed. It's not that I think the DAM or whoever in the NM team is not suited for this task, no, I'm just wondering whether they might need some help/encouragement?

Lamentably, I have no time to process NMs but if there's any other thing I could do, I'd be more than glad to. marek -- Visit: http://caudium.net - the Caudium WebServer /* A completely unrelated fortune */ "Laugh while you can, monkey-boy." -- Dr. Emilio Lizardo
