-----------------
I'm a student of the medical department of Hokkaido university. There
are three things I want to do for Debian.
1. introduce interesting applications in Japan to the world In
Japan, there are still many interesting applications which are not
well-known to the world, partly owing to lack of documents,
considerations to non-Japanese languages, etc. I want to work
together with upstream authors of them to solve these problems, and
introduce them to other people.
2. make Debian more useful for the Japanese people
There are works which the Japanese people must do, such as Japanese
Imput method and Japanese fonts. Compared with othe distributions
in Japan, Debian has still much room for improvement. I want to
make Debian more useful for the Japanese, especially the Japanese
beginners.

3. make Debian more useful for medical staffs and researchers
I think there is a need of free environment for medical issues to
prevent a waste of the national budget for health and welfare on
silly things, such as useless original standards of vendors', and
Debian is the good environment for it. I want to make Debian more
useful for medical staffs and researchers. At present, I do what I
can do now - translate Debian-Med webpages as a Debian JP Projects
member.
My first contact with free software is with GNU Emacs. I used
MS-Windows when I entered the university, and I was looking for better
email clients than Microsoft Outlook, and I met GNU Emacs and Mew, a
mailer written in elisp. Now Debian runs on all of my computers, and
I'm satisfied with Debian. I want to give back to free software and
Debian.
2. Philosophy and Procedures
============================
Hidetaka Iwai has a good understanding of the Debians Philosophy and
Procedures. He answered all my and his previous AMs questions
regarding Social Contract, DFSG, BTS etc. satisfactorily.
3. Tasks and Skills
===================
He answered my questions satisfactorily. His packages are in good shape.
The bug I found in kazehakase was fixed very fast by upstream and a fixed
package entered the archive shortly later. He manages a good relationship
with upstream and works well with his sponsor.
4. Recommendation
=================
I recommend Hidetaka Iwai to be accepted as Debian Developer.
