Hello:
I hereby request permission to try to package fdk-aac 2.0.1. This package also includes libfdk-aac-dev, which
currently references Bug#915386.
My motivation for joining the Multimedia Team is solely the completion of another Debian Bug#907576. I do not foresee
much involvement with the Multimedia Team beyond maintaining fdk-aac. 907576 requires the newer libfdk-aac-dev 2.0.0,
and thus my request to join you.
My prior experience in Debian is limited to working on Bug#907576 for another team. Note that I am not an official
Debian Maintainer on any Team.
As instructed by your 'How to Join' page, I have created a Salsa account and subscribed to the Multimedia mailing list.
I have previously filed a few Debian bugs. As for reviewing others work, I do not believe I am qualified.
I have previously read most of the Debian packaging procedures while working on Bug907576. I am currently digesting the
contents of the Multimedia Teams 'DevelopPackaging' page.
I will be clicking on the Team's 'Request to Join' page sometime after I send this email.
In addition to the above packaging procedures, I will start work by examining the current fdk-acc 1.6 on the theory it
may provides some clues for packaging 2.0.1.
For anyone who may be interested, I invite suggestions or help in packaging fdk-aac 2.0.1.
Thank you,
Garie Miller
