One of my first loves in free software was Perl. Perl was the first
language I spent a serious amount of time learning and in the process
I was shown many of the benefits of free software. From CPAN to the
local Perl Mongers meeting I learned that free software wasn't just
about the obvious benefits that code freedom has for everyone, but
also the community and human element surrounding the eclectic mix of
active members and contributors of any project. I came for the
freedom, but I stayed for the people.
As all researchers, craftsmen, engineers, and artists have stood on
the ground that their predecessors have laid, I'd like to help
continue laying new ground and to keep improving on what our
predecessors in free software have done.
For the past two years I've been a Perl/PHP/MySQL programmer and
systems administrator for a local company that exclusively uses free
software for all of our server, and some of our desktop needs. In a
few months I'll be starting at Washington State University, working
toward my B.S. in Computer Science.
For Debian I plan to continue maintaining the package I currently have
in Debian that I also am upstream for, sysv-rc-conf. Since my main
experience is with Perl and PHP, I intend to help with packaging
related libraries, and fixing bugs in Perl or PHP related packages.
Documentation is another part of Debian that I plan on contributing
to, and am close to releasing a new project that I hope to get
included with the Debian Documentation Project, dict-debian [1]. A
dictionary for all Debian related terms. It currently builds to all
regular formats such as html, but also builds to the dict format,
ready to drop into your local dictd server.
2. Philosophy and Procedures
----------------------------
Joe has an excellent understanding of Debian's philosophy and
procedures. He provided acceptable answers to all my questions about
the Social Contract, DFSG, and other Debianisms.
3. Tasks and Skills
-------------------
Joe is the maintainer of:
sysv-rc-conf (sponsored by Osamu Aoki)
Joe also answered my other questions regarding T&S without problems.
4. Recommendation
-----------------
I recommend Joe as a Debian developer.
