Policy and Procedures
---------------------
Javier and I discussed the Social Contract and the DFSG. He
demonstrated to me that he understands the principles and extent of
these documents, and that he is aware of the responsibilities of a
debian maintainer. He also explicitly agreed to abide by the DMUP. He
also answered some questions on copyrights and licenses to my
satisfaction.

Tasks and Skills
----------------
Javier is the leader of the La Espiral project. I quote from his
email:
"I'm an barrapunto.com editor wrinting in the debian section, and
I'm the leader of "La Espiral Project" (www.laespiral.org), an
initiative to aid to growth Debian (no Debian GNU/Linux, _Debian_)
in the spanish language world. We are cooperating with
www.debian.org/international/spanish, you can see the reference to
La Espiral in
http://www.debian.org/international/spanish/proyectos.es.html";
He has packaged hptalx, amongst other programs. hptalx is a HP48 or
HP49 <-> Computer communications program for Linux. I took a look at
the package and it is lintian clean. Javier is being advocated by
Jordi Mallach (Oskuro). Here is what Oskuro had to say about Javier:
"[03/12 15:15:56] [Oskuro> Gop_Astro: He's the Coordinator of
laespiral.org, a pr oject to provide free documentation and articles
about Debian, in Spanish. He has written some mini howto's about
Debian-related thigs (apt-get, etc). He's very active on that
project. He's also very responsive and very dedicated to Debian."
All in all, I think Javier has the skills and the experience necessary
to be a debian developer and will make a great addition to the debian
developer community.
