For nm.debian.org, at 2024-04-21:

I would like to apply to change my status in Debian to Debian
Developer, uploading.

I have been a maintainer of a few packages since 2012; the LCAS/LCMAPS
collection for Grid Computing authentication and authorization was
developed with help of EU funding in the EGEE and later EGI projects.

Later, I packaged the IGTF distribution of CA certificates that are
used in several scientific computing communities, mainly physics and
hight-througput computing.

While the platform-of-choics in this field has been Red Hat Enterprise
Linux compatible, principally CentOS, a recent change in direction at
Red Hat makes this compatibility more tricky. Several labs are thinking
about a shift in the direction of Debian.

I strongly feel that when one makes use of open source software,
giving back in some form is the right thing to do. The HTC community
could use more Debian Devolopers to help with packaging software
that is relied on and not already in Debian; they could help to improve
the sofware that is already there but sees new users and use cases.
