For nm.debian.org, at 2025-04-07:
I support Colin King <colin.i.king@gmail.com>'s request to become a Debian Developer, uploading.
I have worked with Colin King on various Intel managment packages
for the past 9 months and I consider them as having sufficient technical competence.

Colin is very knowledgeable and thorough in his work.  He has a strong attention
to detail and exhibits professionalism in his communications.

I have personally worked with Colin King <colin.i.king@gmail.com>
(key 7062DAA4F001B9C6616700CF68C287DFC6A80226) for 9 months, and I know Colin King
can be trusted to be a full member of Debian, and have unsupervised, unrestricted upload rights, right now.

I worked with Colin and I'd trust him to do uploads on his own.
I've checked his recent work at https://salsa.debian.org/ColinKing/intel-lpmd/-/commits/master?ref_type=HEADS
and I've also worked with him in the past on Debian packaging.
As his short biography shows he is more than qualified to become a Debian Developer.
