For nm.debian.org, at 2026-05-30:
I support Benjamin Somers <benjamin.somers@resel.fr>'s request to become a
Debian Developer, non-uploading.

I met Benjamin several years ago in Brest, I cannot tell exactly when, but
probably around 2020, maybe earlier.  The important bits are that I started
working with Ben when he accepted to help organizing DebConf 25, so end of
2023.  As I mentioned in other places, without Ben, the DebConf in Brest would
not have been possible.  So I am very thankful for his very hard and rigorous
work and all the involvement, that show how much he cares about Debian.

We have also collaborated in other topics, such as Debian and new regulations.
In every occasion, all our interactions have been pleasant.

I am thus happy that Ben is applying to become a Debian Developer.  (As a bonus
point, this would help to increase the ratio of num_DDs / country_population in
Brittany!)

I have personally worked with Benjamin Somers <benjamin.somers@resel.fr>
(key 9E2689CA802E5A231E5C1E6CFC8247F5D511EC65) for more than two years, and I
know Benjamin Somers can be trusted to be a full member of Debian, right now.
