I am a Debian user for more than 20 years. Contributing to Debian is something
I want to do for a long time, but I never had the occasion to do it.
Today, many people see open source only as a way to work effectively.
Free Software is more than that, it is empowering the users.
Debian has been true to this goal and this is something I would like to take
part into.
Since I joined the Debian LEGO Team, I have contributed changes to existing
packages, both on the packaging and the software itself when the upstream
maintainer was not responding. I also brought back nxt-python which was
removed in 2020 due to missing python 3 support.
I plan to continue working on LEGO related software, but also software related
to electronics.
I am a believer in Yak Shaving, so I will not miss opportunities to fix
problems as I find them in my day to day activities.
Many thanks to Petter Reinholdtsen and Soren Stoutner, for having encouraged
me to change a “maybe one day”, to a “why not now?”.
