Final Report for Roberto Soto Suarez <ask4it@bigfoot.com>
Roberto has completed the new-maintainer checklist to my satisfaction.
I recommend that he be accepted as a Debian developer.
First name: Roberto
Last name: Suarez Soto [*]
Current e-mail: <ask4it@bigfoot.com>
Desired e-mail: <turgon@debian.org>, forwarded to <ask4it@bigfoot.com>
Subscriptions to: <turgon@debian.org>
[*] I must admit that I am woefully ignorant of Spanish naming customs.
I do not know for sure if "Suarez Soto" would be considered his
"last name", or just "Soto". IIRC, though, I have it right....
GPG Key:
The GPG public key Roberto provided is attatched to this report,
and bears the following ID and Fingerprint:

The key bears these signatures by Developers:

Identification
Roberto's GPG key was signed by a current Developer. His identity
is therefore considered adequately verified.
Philosophy and Procedures
Roberto has a package prepared for upload. Here's the gaff:
It is not lintian clean. When I called him on that, he was
able to cite "chapter and verse" as to why it was not clean,
and to cite Bug #53890 to show me that his package was still
correct, lintian's complaints notwithstanding. :^)
So, he obvoulsly understands Policies and Proceedures....
As far as Philosophy, he groks the FS/OS culture independent
of the DSC and DFSG. And he gave me a fairly strong statement
that he understands and agrees with the DSC and DFSG as well.
He is well versed in Debian lore. :^)
Tasks and Skills
Roberto has a package ready for immediate upload, called
"ez-ipupdate", which is a client for dynamic DNS systems.
He is also interested in joining the Translation efforts
for Galician (Spanish dialect?) language.
Evaluation and Check-in
He describes himself as an "end-user with a lot of curiosity".
I find that to be an understatement. :^)
I think he groks Debian better than *I* do, and I'm the one
tasked with checking *his* pedigree. ;^>
IMHO, he will make a series of excellent contributions to the Project.
Since this report bears no photo ID, I have cross-posted it in it's
entirety to new-maintainer, da-manager, and debian-newmaint-admin.
Cheers!
