Hi, Here is my monthly report for July 2013 (+ the beginning of August). That was a rather slower month, with some travel (for work) and some vacations. Outline: - Survey of new contributors - ITWire interview - Logo registration as a trademark - Delegations - Debian representatives on the GNOME Advisory Board - Follow-up: call for help: Debian Auditors - Assets - Reminder: sprints! - Day-to-day log Survey of new contributors ========================== As initially mentioned in [1], I surveyed new contributors (people who just had their first package accepted in Debian). A summary of results is available at [2]. The raw answers are available to Debian Developers. (just ask me) [1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2013/07/msg00010.html [2] https://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2013/08/msg00011.html ITWire interview ================ I answered an interview for ITWire[1]. A spanish translation[2] is available, made by Grupo de Software Libre de Cúcuta. [1] http://www.itwire.com/business-it-news/open-source/60564-new-debian-leader-seeks-more-innovation-within-project [2] http://www.camayihi.org/enterate/150-lucas-nussbaum Logo registration as a trademark ================================ Following previous work on this topic [1,2], our trademark team worked very hard and forwarded everything needed (or at least we hope so!) to register the Debian logo as a US trademark to our legal counsel, Software Freedom Law Center (SFLC). [1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2013/04/msg00082.html [2] https://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2013/06/msg00022.html Delegations =========== Nicolas Dandrimont <olasd> has been delegated as a GSOC admin[1], as he became a DD recently. The list of delegations has been updated on our website[2]. [1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2013/08/msg00001.html [2] http://www.debian.org/intro/organization.en.html Debian representatives on the GNOME Advisory Board ================================================== Sebastian Dröge <slomo> and Michael Biebl <biebl> have agreed to represent Debian in the GNOME Advisory Board[1]. [1] https://wiki.gnome.org/AdvisoryBoard Follow-up: call for help: Debian Auditors ========================================= Two volunteers (Christopher Browne and Brian Gupta) answered the call for help, and are going to be mentored by our current auditors (Martin Michlmayr and Martin Wuertele). Thanks! Assets ====== - Approved shipping of console servers bought last year ($80 + 32€ for german customs) - Approved purchase of remotely-managed PDU (110€) and cables for the console server (40€) Day-to-day log ============== As usual, my day-to-day log of DPL activities is available on master:/srv/leader/news/bits-from-the-DPL.txt.201307 Reminder: sprints! ================== It's possible and easy to organize a sprint for your team. See https://wiki.debian.org/Sprints for details. - Lucas
