I hereby advocate Alessandro's application as a DD. Alessandro is a member of the Debian Perl Group since at least December 2010, and he's one of the most active members constantly since then. When he joined the team, I was pleasantly surprised how quick he learned all the written and unwritten rules, policies, and procedures both of Debian at large and our group, and he soon prepared very good packages. Since a long time I'm usually uploading his packages without any (request for) changes, so it's about time he can do this himself :) Alessandro cares for a whole bunch of packages (he's in Uploaders for 85 according to my local git repos but IIRC he has worked on more) and has done the whole range of maintainer duties (new upstream release, fixing bugs, interacting with users and upstream, adopting packages and bringing them up to date, etc.) in an excellent way; but he also cares about things like out internal tools and thereby makes lives easier for all of us. It's a pleasure to work together with Alessandro, he's always friendly and helpful, and also asks for help or picks up proposals in the rare cases where this was appropriate. I really hope to see Alessandro as a fellow DD soon. Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
