Summary for Jared Johnson <solomon@futureks.net> Identity -------- Jared's GPG key is signed by Jonathan J. Hall, recently accepted as new maintainer. pub 1024D/5B7CE48E 2001-01-29 Jared Johnson <solomon@futureks.net> sig 5B7CE48E 2001-01-29 Jared Johnson <solomon@futureks.net> sig 383F25B5 2001-01-31 Jonathan J. Hall <jonhall@futureks.net> Jared would like to have "solomon" as his login on Debian machines. Philosophy & Procedures ----------------------- I asked Jared to explain the Social Contract, which he did to my satisfaction. The package he is interested in, galeon, is GPLed and he started working on it back when Mozilla becoming GPLed hadn't been made public yet. He explained why an exception clause would have been needed in order for galeon to be distributable. He also explained other licensing issues to my heart's content. I've seen him a couple of times on IRC, on #debian-devel, where he has behaved in a friendly and calmed manner. He's eager to read documentation when he's told to do so. Tasks & Skills -------------- Jared has been packaging galeon for a long time. He's got a out-of-cvs autobuilding package nowadays. I've checked the packages and they are good. I pointed out a couple of problems, which he fixed promptly. From what I've seen, Jared is skilled and competetent, and is capable of maintaining Debian packages without problems. Recommendation -------------- I happyly recommend Jared to be accepted as a Debian Developer. The report to the DAM includes copies of all our email communication. -- Marcelo
