I am assuming that the DPL role will take 15 hours a week but that it
may burst to significantly more than that.
Through delegating tasks and assembling a team to work with I'm hoping
to scale that down to around 10 hours a week, but I'm prepared for the
15 if necessary.
My employer is supporting my efforts, but I think the specific breakdown
in how much of that time happens during the work day and how much of my
personal time I dedicate to Debian is something that isn't important to
anyone besides my employer and I.
I am confident in my ability to perform the job.
I have successfully performed the role of Security Area Director (IESG
member) for the IETF while working as the Chief Technologist for the MIt
Kerberos Consortium. That is, I was reviewing all the RFCs as they came
up for approval while also holding down a day job and managing a number
of working groups (teams) that reported to me.
The DPL role is very different than the IESG role, but I have the
experience to take on a significant volunteer role while also meeting my
responsibilities to my employer.
You also asked about my other areas of focus as DPL. I've just sent a
copy of my platform to the secretary. Once that's posted I'd be
delighted to discuss any other questions of focus you have.
Thanks,
--Sam
