I support Mathias Gibbens <mathias@calenhad.com>'s request to become a Debian Maintainer.

I have worked with Mathias Gibbens for several months with packages for the Go
packaging team related to his work on getting LXD on the archive (see #768073).
Mathias has already a very good technical knowledge of our policy and procedures
and always integrates the feedback that I give. He also knows when to ask questions.

I have personally worked with Mathias Gibbens <mathias@calenhad.com>
(key 0A3455B7CCDE5C5343747321C0BA812C6C4DCB2E) for 3 months, and I know Mathias Gibbens
can be trusted to have upload rights for their own packages, right now.

For nm.debian.org, at 2021-12-31:
I support Mathias Gibbens <mathias@calenhad.com>'s request to become a Debian Maintainer.
I have been collaborating with Mathias on packaging OpenRCT2 since this March.
I consider Mathias as having sufficient technical competence to become a DM.

- From Mathias's work and our private e-mail exchanges I am convinced that Mathias has
sufficient knowledge of both technical matters and Debian procedures.
Mathias is a fast and independent learner and is really keen on packaging.
Thus I believe Mathias really can be trusted to upload their work.
