Details from benthetechguy:

  For nm.debian.org, at 2025-09-07:
  I would like to apply to change my status in Debian to Debian Developer,
  uploading.
  I have been a Debian Maintainer for three years now, and after collecting
  DD
  signatures on my key and getting dozens of packages uploaded, I feel I am
  fully
  ready to continue my journey to become a proper DD, so I can upload them
  myself.
