Re: Daniel Swarbrick: Declaration of intent to become a DD, upl.

Hi Mattia,

You might recall that I applied earlier this year and my application seemed to fall through the cracks. I was too busy to chase up or re-apply until now.

I will take care of getting the signatures on my key. I don't usually hang out at key-signing parties ;-)

The reason that I am applying as a DD is that it is effectively what I have been doing for the last two years, under the expert tutoring of bdrung, with whom I work. He doesn't always have time to sponsor my uploads, and feels that I am ready to take that next step myself. Right now I am busily updating a bunch of Prometheus packages with tina and kanashiro, and the only handicap is that I am able to do all the work except for upload packages.

There are a few problems with your application:

* Your GPG key doesn't have any signature at all (but we require 2 DD
signatures for prospective DDs)
* You are not a DM yet.

Thought the DM bit is not a requirement, it's nowadays at the very least
unusual for a non-DM to apply to become DD, and we at least would like
some kind of explenation as to way you wouldn't apply for DM first
(keeping in mind that it would still require at least 1 DD signature on
your GPG key…).

In fact, looking at your upload history, it feels like would it would
more useful to you as of now would be being a DM, rather than starting
the whole DD process.
