(Hrm, I really should update my key in the Debian keyring...)

Here it is, signed with the registered key.

My experiences while cooperating with Kęstutis are similar to Christian's ones.
I've helped Kęstutis working on the freedict packages, and did sponsored
uploads of opendict and opendict-lingvosoft.  Kęstutis has the needed skills,
is cooperative and responsive.  He has done good work for Debian.  I am
absolutely confident that Kęstutis being a Debian Maintainer will be good for
Debian and Free Software.

BTW, Kęstutis is still in the NM-queue, see
https://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=kebil%40kaunas.init.lt .

I hereby advocate Kęstutis' application to become a Debian Maintainer.

Bye,

Joost
