Summary for Wilmer van der Gaast <lintux@lintux.cx> Background ---------- Quoting Wilmer himself: > Well, the programming story for me started about ten years ago, and > the Linux story about four years ago, when a cousin told me about > it. As soon as I got a 386 capable of running it, I started using it > and since then I just never stopped. The difference between then and > now is that I use it for almost everything now, and those days it > was just a very interesting experiment. > > Now that my C coding skills are more and more improving, free > software is starting to be more interesting for me too, because I > can actually understand the code. :) Identity -------- Wilmer's key is signed by Remco van de Meent <remco@debian.org>: pub 1024D/E3304051 2001-05-21 Wilmer van der Gaast <lintux@lintux.cx> sig!

E3304051 2001-05-21 Wilmer van der Gaast <lintux@lintux.cx> Philosophy & Procedures ----------------------- Wilmer understands Debian's philosophy and agrees with it, he could answer my questions about some licensing problems, NMUs, ways of handling the BTS and more. Tasks & Skills -------------- He packaged Axel, a download accelerator, which is already in Debian for some time. He also packaged nm-notify, which I will upload soon (in the meantime, his package can be found at http://people.debian.org/~algernon/nm-notify/). I am pleased with his packaging, both packages were well done. Recommendation -------------- I recommend that Wilmer be accepted as a Debian maintainer.
