For nm.debian.org, at 2023-08-28:

I hereby request a change of status in Debian to Debian Developer,
uploading.

I've been maintaining a number of free software FPGA synthesis flow related
packages as DM (yosys, nextpnr, fpga-icestorm, berkeley-abc) for a year
give or take. Recently adding support for new FPGA types has required
uploading new packages putting additional load on my kind sponsors.

I would like to be able to handle these changes myself and I feel it's time
to take the step to DD anyhow.

In the future I'd like to work on making Debian better at acting as a piece
of network infrastructure. I'm working on ifupdown-ng as a promising
drop-in ifupdown replacement, the high-performance kernel-bypass networking
system fdio-vpp and IPv6 transitional technology encouraging IPv6-only
networks (NAT64/SIIT/CLAT) all of which will be much easier as DD.
