Details from revy:

  I would like to apply to change my status in Debian to Debian Developer,
  uploading.
  I started working on downstream debian distributions about 5 years ago.
  By chance, I started working on RISC-V. Combining this work with my
  previous experience with debian downstream distributions, I began
  submitting fixes for Debian RISC-V. Thanks to the previous riscv porter
  for their contributions; Debian RISC-V has good overall usability. During
  this period, some fixes were submitted and merge requests were made for
  some packages, such as the linux riscv config. I received help from Bo YU
  and Aurelien Jarno during this period, and I thank them.
  I also worked with Bo YU on the RISC-V32 rebootstrap project[2]. Although
  this work was not adopted by Debian, I learned a lot about the ingenious
  design of the rebootstrap. I'm even maintaining a Debian 13 RISCV32
  rebootstrap script[3] now, so I might be able to recompile the entire
  RISCV32 rootfs for Debian 13 if the opportunity arises.
  I also assisted debci in maintaining the kernels of some RISCV machines,
  such as ESWIN EIC7700/Lichee Pi 4a(TH1520)/Sophgo SG2042. I also maintain
  RevyOS[4] and RockOS[5], two downstream Debian RISCV distributions, and I
  share any issues I encounter with Debian.
  Besides RISCV, I also participated in the loong64 rebootstrap project,
  helping to provide a minimal rootfs for initialization and fixing some
  loong64 packages.
  I am still a member of the Debian Deepin Packaging Team. Recently, I've
  been refactoring and submitting dtk/dde/deepin package to help it better
  on Debian. I received help from Boyuan Yang during this period. I am
  grateful to him for helping me improve my Debian packaging skills.
  I believe that becoming a DD will increase my contribution efficiency and
  allow me to contribute more to the community.
