Hello,
time for some news from the NM process.
New Front Desk member
---------------------
After having been FD assistant for some time, please welcome Xavier
Oswald as full FD member!
New Front Desk tasks
--------------------
Front Desk has also picked up a few more tasks, relieving the Alioth
admins from approving requests to join the collab-maint project [CM],
and DSA from approving requests of temporary porterbox accounts for
non-DDs [GA].
We want stronger keys
---------------------
Following an announcement from keyring-maint [KM]:
Anybody who is currently a DD or DM, or that has started his
application towards becoming one, will be allowed with whatever key
they currently have - But effective October 1st, no applications for
DM or DD should be processed with anything less than a 2048R
SHA2-capable key.
If you are already in the NM process, have a 1024D key and are planning
to upgrade to a stronger key, now is a good time to do it: if you get
the stronger key in the DD keyring right away, there won't be a need to
bother keyring-maint with a migration later on.
Your AM or Front Desk can assist with finding other DDs near you or with
tips on key migration.
General Resolution: Debian project members
------------------------------------------
At Front Desk we are all anxious to see what the outcome of the current
[GR] will be: please don't forget to vote!
