Background ------------- Applicant writes: == About me == My name is Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer, I am 28 years old and I live in Bahía Blanca, Argentina. I'm an electronic engineer working on embedded devices. == How I came to GNU/Linux and free software == I discovered libre software on January 2002, but I couldn't try it until mid 2002. I then subscribed to a pair of local LUGs mailing lists, BBLug from my local place and LugFI from Buenos Aires. In this last place I digitally met marga, des, maxyz and Tincho. I was using Red Hat, and some day des wrote something like "I don't understand why people who try Debian botter to try other distros". That was enough to make me curious about this distro. As I haven't a broadband connection, and after failing lots of times to try to get a copy of Debian with a friend's connection, I ended up buying a copy of Sarge's DVDs on December 2004. Using aptitude to install software was love at first sight :-) == Why I want to volunteer my time == While I started translating stuff wanting to be part of the libre software community, I also found that it would enable me to learn lots of things, meet lots of different people from very differents places and the best of all: have fun :-) I think that the stuff that I do can be useful for other people, in the same way I find useful the work of other people. == Contributions I made to Debian == I am maintaining the packages listed at [0] and have worked with packages under the Qt/KDE team's umbrella, although I am getting listed in Uploaders since I became a DM. [0] <http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=perezmeyer%40gmail.com&comaint=yes> I am already a DM since Nov 13th, 2010 [1]. [1] <http://lists.debian.org/debian-newmaint/2010/11/msg00011.html> I have also been part of the DebConf8 local team, starting as volunteer and ending up in the organization team. == Primary areas of interest, goals == I am particulary involved in Qt/KDE stuff. I'm also interested in Computer Aided Engineering/Design and getting Debian in embedded devices. I had the pleasure to do some QA work with Ana Guerrero, and I think I will certainly try to do some work in that area too. 3. Philosophy and Procedures ----------------------------- Lisandro 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. Lisandro committed to uphold the SC and DFSG in his Debian work and accepts the DMUP. 4. Tasks and Skills ------------------- Lisandro has a good understanding of the technical side of Debian. He is maintainer of several packages related to Qt/KDE (sponsored by marga, ana etc). All packages are in good shape. Lisandro also answered my other questions regarding T&S without problems. 5. Recommendation ----------------- I strongly recommend to accept Lisandro as a Debian Developer. It has been a great pleasure working with him and his knowledge convinced me even more. Hauke -- .''`.
