MJ would like to have "mjr" as his login name on Debian machines. He
has read and agreed to the DMUP. He'd like his Debian mail forwarded
to mjr@dsl.pipex.com
Philosophy & Procedures
-----------------------
MJ explained the Social Contract to my satisfaction. He is also
familiar with our procedures. He is involved with the UK's Association
For Free Software http://www.affs.org.uk/ and a websearch quickly
reveals that he actively supports Free Software. Interestingly, MJ
introduced Thom May and Paul Russell (both of Apache fame in one way or
another) to Free Software.
From Thom:
Mark Ray is one of the major reasons I'm a debian user - he's one of
the people who introduced me to the distribution. He's an extremely
talented coder in numerous languages, and is highly dedicated to the
ideals of Free Software. I think he would a valuable and vocal
addition to the Debian community.
Tasks & Skills
--------------
MJ has been working with Debian systems for a while ahd he has
backported stuff from unstable to testing for his own uses. Looking at
the BTS he's also active there. He currently maintains wily:
Package: wily
Priority: optional
Section: editors
Maintainer: MJ Ray <markj@luminas.co.uk>
Description: A work-alike of the Acme programming environment for Plan 9
Wily's basic functions are to edit and search for text and to run
commands. It is intended to eventually be an integrated working
environment for all tasks involving text. It uses the mouse
heavily.
.
It emphasises speed for experienced users, but is probably simple
to learn as it has very few concepts.
The packaging looks ok.
Recommendation
--------------
I recommend that MJ is accepted as a Developer.
