NM final report for Aaron Lehmann
Report for new developer applicant: Aaron Lehmann
I'm happy to report that Aaron Lehmann has satisfied the requirements
for the application to become a Debian maintainer. A summary of the
completed NM steps follows.
Identification
--------------
The applicant has sent the following GPG key:
pub 1024D/AE895899 2000-02-16 Aaron Lehmann <aaronl@vitelus.com>
sub 1024g/9C7EE404 2000-02-16
This key is signed by a Debian developer, Joey Hess <joey@kitenet.net>.
Philosophy and Procedures
-------------------------
The applicant has read the DFSG and the Social Contract, and has shown that he
understands the basic issues behind the DFSG. He is able to explain why a
package must go in non-free when the license allows free redistribution and
modification, but prohibits distribution for commercial use, and he's also
able to explain why a Debian-specific exception granted by the upstream author
would not ratify this situation.
Furthermore, the applicant has also shown familiarity with Debian procedures,
being currently a maintainer of several packages via a Debian sponsor.
Tasks and Skills
----------------
The applicant is currently an active maintainer (via a Debian sponsor) of the
packages pngcrush, gtkgraph, and gtk-theme-switch, and intends to adopt the
package xkoules. He is very familiar with the BTS and uses it on a regular
basis.
Furthermore, he is already subscribed to the debian-devel list and regularly
contributes to it.
Summary
-------
The applicant has already been contributing to Debian and has shown himself to
uphold the philosophy behind Debian; hence, I highly recommend him to be
accepted as a new Debian maintainer.
