Application for Debian Maintainership



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Dear Reader,

this is the pledge and declaration of my intent to be accepted
as a Debian Maintainer.

I have repeatedly read the Social Contract and the Debian Free
Software Guidelines, as well as the Debian Machine Usage Policy.
I agree with their phrasing in letter and in intent.

Currently I maintain the packages:

    nd, netpipes, ttysnoop, twofish, w9wm, webfs, and windowlab.

In collaboration, I maintain

    durep, libcache-historical-perl, linux-ftpd, nettoe, and netkit-ftp.

I have implemented IPv6-support in

    bsd-finger, cfingerd, linux-ftpd, netkit-ftp, netpipes,
		nettoe, and netris.

These are the ones where the patches have gone into the repository, and where
IPv6 was lacking before my contribution. Further patches are still waiting 
for evaluation by the relevant maintainer. In addition, a number of smaller
patches have been accepted, where the intent was to restore the functionality
of the software in mixed IPv4/IPv6 environments, which otherwise might be
disturbed by issues in address resolving.

I have implemented code for libgnutls in "webfs", where libssl were
inactivated in the repository. I did also implement digest-authentication
in "nd", where only "basic" was present before my contribution.

I have mended the RC-bug "dir-or-file-in-var-www" in

    calamaris, cricket, doc-central, durep, htdig, iog, phpsysinfo.

It is my intention to continue implementing and auditing IPv6-behaviour
in Debian packages where I detect weaknesses. I have even engaged in some
select upstream software in order to make them IPv6-able and thus enter
the Debian maintained collection. In particular I will act as member of
GNU Inetutils.

My GnuPG Key

is now signed by the Debian Developer

     Ola Lundqvist <opal@debian.org>

Finally, I do, Dear Reader, appreciate your endurance in reading this text!


Best regards,

Mats Erik Andersson, PhD
