I hereby suppport Harlan's application as DM. I've been working with him in the Debian Perl Group since Summer 2011: > Currently, I help maintain the following packages as a member of the > Debian Perl team: > - libcache-fastmmap-perl > - libdata-hexdumper-perl > - liblingua-identify-perl > - libmongodb-perl > - libnet-amazon-perl > - libstatistics-descriptive-perl > - libstatistics-linefit-perl > - libtenjin-perl > - libtext-ngram-perl > - libtext-ngrams-perl Besides those 12 packages, where Harlan is in Uploaders, he also worked on something like 28 more [0] in the best spirit of team work: He helped out and prepared packages for new upstream releases where necessary, discussed open questions or tricky licensing issue with others, and was always open about proposals for improvements. I can confirm that Harlan has the necessary technical and social skills to be responsible for packages. (PS: In case someone is wondering: While we usually still don't use the DM concept in pkg-perl, being DM would help Harlan's work on other packages, which would be a benefit for Debian IMO.)
