Dear Developers,
It is my pleasure to announce that, after being trainees for the last few
months[1,2], Paul Wise <pabs> and Julien Cristau <jcristau> are now
official members of the Debian System Administrators team.
The updated delegation follows, between dashed lines. The task description
was also updated with two mostly-cosmetic changes:
- correlation of GPG keys to the according accounts based on requests
from the Debian Keyring Maintainers
-- Setting up and administering Debian-owned machines, ensuring that they
- are kept secure, operational, and running.
+- Setting up and administering most of Debian-owned machines, ensuring
+ that they are kept secure, operational, and running
- Coordinating with local admins of the machines regarding network
connectivity and (if needed) asking for remote hands
- Granting required rights to other developers who need them to maintain
a particular service
- Handle standard services like the debian.org email alias that each
developer has or keeping DNS up to date
-- complete install requests for porter chroots
- maintaining the Debian Machine Usage Policies (DMUP), within the
following limits:
The first change clarifies that there are some Debian-owned machines that
are not under DSA control[3], for various (good) reasons.
The second change reflects the fact that users of the chroots can now
install build dependencies themselves, as documented[4].

project; it can however propose the developer for expulsion to DAM,
on the basis of DMUP violation
- changes to the DMUP shall be announced to the debian-devel-announce
mailing list at least 2 months in advance with respect to when they
are supposed to become effective
