Applicant writes: I started with Linux after accidently dialing into a BBS which was unlike any I had seen before. After figuring out it was running Linux, I acquired a very early Slackware distribution and started playing. I became a Debian fan after I worked to fix bug #119176; I was hooked on the iterative process where everyone works to create something better. I came to my current job at Gelato@UNSW (http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au) via hanging out on the local Linux users group lists. Now I work full time as a programmer working on IA64 Linux -- we are a Debian shop through and through. My goals with Debian are currently IA64 related. I maintain a few packages and otherwise make IA64 enhancments, and becoming a DD will allow me to stop bugging sponsors to do uploads and such. Google says: According to Google, Ian is active on the kernel and glibc lists, and other IA64-related projects. 2. Philosophy and Procedures ----------------------------- Ian 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 ------------------- Ian is Maintainer of numactl and libatomic-ops, both hardware- related packages. He recently started working on ltrace, incorporating patches for IA64 and PPC support. He also answered my other Questions regarding T&S without problems. 4. Recommendation ----------------- I recommend to accept him as a Debian Developer. Account: ianw Forward-Email: ianw@ieee.org Christoph -- cb@df7cb.de | http://www.df7cb.de/
