Hi Jari, we are afraid to have to tell you that we currently agree with Raphael's assessment here. Your contributions to Debian are widespread, but there seems to be some attrition between them and the rest of the project. We prefer not to accept your application for Debian Developer right now, but reading what your sponsor Tony Mancill said, we do encourage you to get DM rights, and we would like to encourage you to spend some time to try and blend in a bit more with the rest of the developers.
