And if someone has problems with his real-life, he can often tell an estimated date when he will have his problems solved. That's why I just wrote several months, without any further defintion. So this can mean two months in a series, but also one two weeks, then 6 weeks, where he' stuck because of real-life and then 4 weeks. (Don't take this figures literally, they are just examples). I just think it would be good to have them work a certain time for debian first. > > Maybe he has already done a lot in the past or is involved in a lot of > > software projects?
