AM report for Sam Powers



Summary for Sam Powers <sam@oddbox.org>

Identity
--------

There was no one living particularly close and Sam doesn't have a
car, so I accepted a scanned photo ID.

sig        F9EA9385 2000-10-15  Sam Powers <sam@oddbox.org>

Background
----------

Sam first installed Debian on his Powerbook.  He first didn't like the
(old GNOME) user interface, but then decided to help making the system
better.  In Debian, his main goal is to help wherever possible to improve
the quality for its users.  Of primary interest to him are the installer,
the PowerPC port, and the packages he maintains -- currently xmms-liveice.


Philosophy & Procedures
-----------------------

Sam understands Debian's philosophy and agrees with it.  He has read
and agrees to uphold the Social Contract and the DMUP.  Sam correctly
answered questions about TeX, could explain the difference of main,
contrib and non-free; he is also aware why mpg123 is non-free and knows
about lintian.


Tasks & Skills
--------------

Sam has packaged xmms-liveice and previously some other packages which
will not be uploaded to Debian because of some license issues.
xmms-liveice, however, is intended to become part of Debian.  In fact,
Sam's sponsor Marcel Harkema has already uploaded it to incoming.


Recommendation
--------------

I recommend that Sam be accepted as a Debian maintainer.
