David writes, "I work in Liverpool as a Network Manager in a secondary
school, and am currently working on my Computing degree with the Open
University.  I've been "into" computers since I was 10, and have been
programming since about the same time.

I first used Linux in 1996 when I ordered a copy of slackware, my first
experience of Debian was when I installed Potato in work to run as a
Samba server.  I quickly moved my other computers to Debian, and have
used it ever since.

I have wanted to contribute to Debian for a while, and when I discovered
that the package for ntlmaps (which I use at work) was up for adoption I
offered to help.  Since then I have also packaged another piece of software
called geximon, becoming upstream in the process as the original author no
longer wished to maintain the software.  I found geximon very useful and
felt other Debian users would benefit from having it available."


2. Philosophy and Procedures
----------------------------

David understands Debian's philosophy and procedures.  He agrees with
the Social Contact and the DMUP, has answered questions relating to
philosophy, procedures and tasks/skills.


3. Tasks and Skills
-------------------

David currently maintains geximon and ntlmaps, and is working on packages
for raccoonshow and pybridge-common.


4. Recommendation
-----------------

I recommend to accept David as a Debian Developer.
