For nm.debian.org, at 2017-01-22:

I would like to apply to become a Debian Developer with rights to
uploading a package. I've been a Debian Maintainer (DM) for more than
a year (Oct 2015).

My first interaction as a contributor was in the form of packaging a
tool to set directory specific environment variables, direnv[0], which
was uploaded to the archive with the sponsorship of Javi Merino.

More recently, I have been co-maintaining "Gnu Global" package[1] with
Wookey. The package hadn't been updated in more than 6 years and had
become out of date with upstream. Since taking over the maintainership
the package has been synced up with latest release and I've been
working on addressing long outstanding bugs.

Going forward, in addition to the packages I maintain, I am looking to
contribute in other areas that I have interest in - linux kernel,
virtualisation, etc. but also debian in general.
