Thus computing has always been a hobby, but one to which I devote considerable time. In 2001 I decided to try Linux, and though I installed several distributions, quickly settled upon Debian. While I came for the quality, I've since stayed for the community and the commitment to Free Software, which I find empowering and philosophically agreeable. Until 2004 I was content to evangelize Debian as a user. However, a combination of a desire to contribute back to the community, and to be a part of what I see as an important movement (Debian exemplifying the collective technical and social potential of Free Software), not to mention the presence of several "itches" in a few packages I used, led me to become a package maintainer, and as I honed my skills, to gradually increase the scope of my contribution. My long-term plans include the continued expansion of my work on the KDE packages, as part of a broader goal to improve Debian on the desktop. 2. Philosophy and Procedures ----------------------------- Christopher has a good understanding of Debians Philosophy and Procedures. He answered all my Questions about Social Contract, DFSG, BTS etc. in a good way. 3. Tasks and Skills ------------------- Christopher is Maintainer of imwheel, okle and gwenview, all Packages in Debian (sponsored by Jérôme Marant (jerome)). He also helps with the xmms maintaining and is involved in the Debian KDE maintainer group. He also answered my other Questions regarding T&S without problems. 4. Recommendation ----------------- I recommend to accept him as a Debian Developer.
