2. Background
-------------
Applicant writes:
I just completed my PhD here at the MIT Computer Science and AI Lab
(CSAIL), where my research focus is on algorithms for autonomous
vehicles. I will soon start a post-doc here to continue my research.
Briefly, I've dabbled around with GNU/Linux since around 1997, and
started releasing my own free software packages about 5 years ago. It's
great to be part of a community where everyone contributes and helps
each other out. As a scientist and engineer, it's also quite nice to
have full access to the entirety of a system so that I can examine,
understand, and modify any part when necessary.
My primary goal in volunteering with Debian is to help improve the
packaging of software for scientific computing and robotics research.
Currently, I co-maintain pybluez (of which I'm the upstream author) with
the pkg-bluetooth team and framewave with the pkg-scicomp team.
3. Philosophy and Procedures
-----------------------------
Albert has a good understanding of Debian's philosophy and procedures
and answered all my questions about the social contract,
DFSG, BTS, etc. in a good way. Albert committed to uphold the SC and DFSG
in his Debian work and accepts the DMUP.
4. Tasks and Skills
-------------------
Albert has a good understanding of the technical side of Debian.
Albert is maintainer of framewave and pybluez, sponsored by Christophe
Prud'homme <prudhomm@debian.org> and Filippo Giunchedi <filippo@debian.org>.
All packages are in good shape.
Albert also answered my other questions regarding T&S without problems
and provided patches for RC bugs.
5. Recommendation
-----------------
I recommend to accept Albert as a Debian Developer.
Ciao,
Enrico
