Details from ballarin:

  For nm.debian.org, on 2025-05-04:
  I would like to apply to change my status in Debian to Debian Developer,
  uploading.
  I have been a Debian Maintainer since February 2024, working mainly
  within the
  Debian Science and Debian Python teams.
  Among others, I have worked on:
  * PETSc, petsc4py, SLEPc, slepc4py
  * FEniCS (dijitso, dolfin, ffc, fiat, mshr, ufl)
  * FEniCSx (adios4dolfinx, dolfinx-mpc, fenics-basix, fenics-dolfinx,
             fenics-ffcx, fenics-ufl, fenicsx-performance-tests)
  * gmsh and getdp
  Furthermore, I introduced Debian packages for:
  * pusimp, that I developed for specific needs of FEniCS' and FEniCSx'
  Debian
    packaging
  * python-pyvista and its dependency python-scooby
  * python-nbstripout
  I also carried out some uploads contributing minor fixes to packages
  managed
  with the teams I work with.
  Even though I will keep working in close collaboration with the DDs
  within the
  teams above, I apply for a DD, upl status in order to continue the work I
  am
  currently doing with full privileges, especially for what concerns the
  possibility to upload to NEW and to access a broader range of porter
  boxes.
