=========================
I've been a strong Linux user and supporter for about 4 years now. [...]
As I progressed further into my Major at my university, I realized that
I enjoy programming and doing application development. I began to poke
around in GTK development, and as I became more familiar with GNOME, GTK
and Linux, I fell in love with the Open Source development method.
It was then that I realized I could never return to the world of
Windows. Over the years I've jumped from distro to distro, trying to
find one that fits me. I've been interested in getting involved in
distro development, and recently came to the conclusion that Debian is
the best fit as far as distros go for me.
=========================
One could still see some parts of his "jumped from distro to distro",
as there are rpm-packages of him around. His Sponsor writes that they're
together about to convert them one after the other.
2. Philosophy and Procedures
----------------------------
Link demonstrated a good understanding of Debian's Philosophy and
Procedures. He answered my Questions about the Social Contract, the DFSG,
the BTS etc., and became quite familiar with these topics after some
initial discussion.
3. Tasks and Skills
-------------------
Link is maintainer of muine. It is present in the Debian archive,
sponsored by Ross Burton <ross@debian.org>.
When I checked the package, I found some small glitches (wrong
linitian-warnings), that were filed as bug-report against lintian
afterwards (lintian didn't recognize the mono-subpolicy-to-be before).
He also answered my questions regarding T&S.
4. Account information
----------------------
Preferred account name: link
Address to forward E-Mails to: link@subpop.net
Cheers,
Andi
