Sure. I modeled my message after the other advocacy messages sent to this list. Asheesh maintains a series of packages in Debian including Alpine which is reasonably complex and increasingly important. He is quick and responsive to issues with his packages and has been responsive and respectful in his interactions with me and with users. In the months I have been reviewing and uploading his packages, I've not taken issue with any of his technical decisions or needed to suggest changes. My role as sponsor is at this point one of rubber stamp and has only served to increase the time his packages spending waiting to enter the archive. I believe that this, combined with the fact that Asheesh has fulfilled the requirements and agreed to our policies, qualifies him as a DM. I hope that helps.
