-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 [for nm.debian.org on 2025-06-24] Hi Please make Cordell Bloor (currently a Debian Maintainer) a Debian Developer, uploading (advocated by ckk, emollier, lumin). Key 0CE06FE392AA48F8D22E4471F9EF8EE0C021630F should be moved from the 'Debian Maintainer' to the 'Debian Developer, uploading' keyring. Key fingerprint: 0CE06FE392AA48F8D22E4471F9EF8EE0C021630F uid: cgmb First name: Cordell Middle name: George MacArthur Last name: Bloor Current status: Debian Maintainer Target keyring: Debian Developer, uploading Forward email: cgmb@slerp.xyz Details: https://nm.debian.org/process/1366/ Cordell Bloor has accepted the DMUP in a signed statement. Details from cgmb: For nm.debian.org, at 2025-02-05: I, Cordell Bloor, am applying to become a Debian Developer with uploading rights. I have been a Debian Maintainer for a little under two years and have helped to package and maintain many libraries within the AMD GPU compute stack. As part of the Debian ROCm Team, I prepared sixteen new source packages that have been accepted into Debian, including rocfft, rocblas, rocsolver, rocsparse, rocthrust, hipify, and roctracer. I also helped in the maintenance and enhancement of existing packages. In particular, I did much of the work for the upgrade from ROCm 5.2 to ROCm 5.7 in early 2024. I currently have upload rights for most of the ROCm packages in Debian, and while the role of Debian Maintainer gives me significant power to help maintain packages, the need for sponsorship when uploading new binary packages is burdensome. Further, the documentation for package sponsorship states that only Debian Developers may sponsor uploads, which has limited my ability to help mentor Sponsored Maintainers. These are the two main reasons why I wish to become a full Debian Developer with upload privileges. However, there is a third reason why I wish to become a Debian Developer. There are important aspects of Debian that are decided through voting. In particular, there is likely to be a general resolution on Open Source AI in Debian. As an individual with a strong interest in free and open source software, I would like to become a full member so I may vote on these resolutions. - -- Thank you, Nicolas Dandrimont (as DAM) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- wr0EARYKAG8FgmhabXAJEPxcsmdRhtpvRxQAAAAAAB4AIHNhbHRAbm90YXRpb25z LnNlcXVvaWEtcGdwLm9yZ6knU0WjLduoX0+yB9zJzQReOC6xWkXRpfoOcZQFpxF2 FiEEwe9vXx9fCHBMeAy5/FyyZ1GG2m8AALiuAP9DODsYrY1pDL7Z8AsbMBVXecl7 OYHP3qNvRpa3QAaokAD/Yt8QdEfNizUcSl+MIuj+44jYMkYtNbnQ6Du5U+ZdQQw= =A7yY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
