"The Debian New Maintainer process is a series of required
proceedings to become a Debian Developer."
 -- http://www.debian.org/devel/join/newmaint

How can someone who is not a package maintainer become a
developer, if becoming a developer requires being a maintainer?

Or is the above statement false? It seems to disagree with the
constitution section 3.2.1 "Developers are volunteers who agree
to further the aims of the Project insofar as they participate in
it, and who maintain package(s) for the Project or do other work
                                                ^^
which the Project Leader's Delegate(s) consider worthwhile"?
 -- http://www.nl.debian.org/devel/constitution

Are there other delegates beside the NM ones admitting DDs?

Or something else? 

Confusedly,
