For nm.debian.org, at 2025-07-25:
I support Alexandre Viard <xela@viard.dev>'s request to become a Debian Maintainer.
I have worked with Alexandre Viard on hexagonrpc and 81voltd
for more than six months and I consider them as having sufficient technical competence.

I reviewed and sponsored their initial and subsequent uploads of both aforementioned packages,
and I mentored them for their contributions to both Debian and Mobian. Throughout my interaction
with them they demonstrated great technical skills both with Debian and Linux in general, and
always promptly responded to review comments and suggestions, coming up with improved solutions.

I have personally worked with Alexandre Viard <xela@viard.dev>
(key B738B2973EE4E0D47A4A3B185A7BAB1891FDFA61) for more than six months, and I know Alexandre Viard
can be trusted to have upload rights for their own packages, right now.
