I've worked with Yves-Alexis on xfce packaging and sponsored some of his work into the project or uploaded work that was from the team with large contributions from him. I can't fault his work or dedication and when I've pointed things out to him or raised issues in general he's been very responsive in getting things in our repository - certainly more responsive than I've been of late. He certainly deserves to get a key in a keyring. As far as I'm aware, he's just waiting on a report from his AM (daf) currently having passed all the NM tests before he waits on DAM. I'm sure Emanuele Rocca who works on xfce with us would have similarly nice things to say. I'm not sure how aj's 30 sponsored uploads works for teams. I've signed and uploaded packages (having tested them and built them in pbuilder) for the xfce project where the actual packaging work done by a particular person is at times hard to tell. Given xfce has many source packages to upload when upstream just rolls out a new release this might count or might not but I can certainly attest to corsac's bug processing and packaging skills. In any case, Yves-Alexis deserves to be pushed through NM or get his key in this DM keyring whichever comes first. Simon. -- Just another wannabie | "No, the radio works.
