I advocate Giridhars application as DM. A brief summary, please poke
me if you miss anything: (I might be slow to respond due to a lot
of pending security work)
He's diligent in packaging, has a very good understanding of Debian's
packaging practices and the underlying technical base.
His standards of DFSG compliance are high; he spotted a long-standing
DFSG freeness issue in one of the packages he took over (splint).
His interaction with users and upstream is reponsive, productive
and well-mannered.
I also contacted two of his sponsors and they agreed that his work is
of very good quality.
I haven't signed keys with him myself, but several trusted DDs have
signed his key during FOSS.IN.
Cheers,
Moritz
