Yes - Jimmy mixed up New Maintainer and New DM. :( So from my POV his NM process should be cancelled, but leaving further procedures up to Jimmy and you. > It is preferred that one has had some experience as DM before applying > for DD: having DM experience generally makes the NM process much > swifter.
