Dear fellow developers, As per Debian Constitution §8, I hereby appoint the following developers as members of the Debian Archive Operations Team (in short Archive team): * Thorsten Alteholz (alteholz) * Ansgar Burchardt (ansgar) * Joerg Jaspert (joerg) * Luke W. Faraone (lfaraone) This new team is spun off from the former FTP Master team. With its creation, the previous FTP Master delegation is revoked. The delegation is not time-limited and will remain in effect until further changes by the present or a future Project Leader. Task Description ---------------- The Debian Archive Operations Team oversees and maintains the well-being of Debian's official package repositories. Team members are responsible for tasks including: * Operating the archive and maintaining its infrastructure (e.g. tools for processing uploads, moving packages across suites). * Supporting other DPL Delegates in the execution of their delegated tasks. * Managing packagages handled byhand currently. * Removing packages when requested or required, whether as part of routine maintenance or in exceptional circumstances. * Maintaining package state and archive structure via priority and section override files. * Maintaining the software used to run the archive, namely the Debian Archive Kit (dak). * Documenting the team's key processes, especially those related to releases, to support transparency and contributor involvement. Further information ------------------- More details about the Debian Archive Operations Team can be found on the Debian Wiki[1]. I would like to explicitly thank the former FTP Master team for their longstanding work. Thanks ------ Thank you to Sean Whitton for help revising the delegation texts to properly delineate the delegates' responsibilities. Thank you to Andrew McMillan for the initial draft of the Wiki below. Thank you to all previous FTP Masters for all their work.
