I have granted a "Maintainer" role to your Salsa account. Note that you may or may not do the work base on the Salsa git repo at https://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/fdk-aac . Please be aware that package fdk-aac is not a free software as determined by Debian and was put under non-free section, which means any software depending on it will have to be put either in contrib section or in non-free too. When you are working on the git packaging repository, please follow the suggestion at https://dep-team.pages.debian.net/deps/dep14 as well as the Multimedia team's guideline as documented at https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/DevelopPackaging . When you have reached a milestone in packaging the new version, please have your work outcome uploaded onto mentors.debian.net for review and have other Debian Developers review your work. If you prefer not to use mentors.debian.net, you may also have the work ready in the git packaging repository on Salsa. If you have any immature work stored in Git repo, you may also put the work under your own namespace (at https://salsa.debian.org/GMiller-guest/<project_name>) . -- Thanks, Boyuan Yang
