I support Juan Manuel Méndez Rey <juan.mendezr@proton.me>'s request to become a Debian Maintainer. I have worked with him on various chromium-related packaging things since around April 2025.

Juan wrote an interesting blog post (https://vejeta.com/packaging-chromium-embedded-framework-for-debian-a-technical-deep-dive/) about packaging CEF (Chromium Embedded Framework), which was originally how I became acquainted with him. I suggested that CEF become part of the official Chromium package, and while that hasn't happened yet (primarily due to lack of time on my part), he has been super patient and also has been helping out on chromium packaging. I suggested that he package Siso (which chromium uses), which he has done, and which will be helpful for chromium packaging down the line. As an example of technical expertise, here's work he did on attempting to fix chromium FTBFS on armhf due to 32-bit memory addressing issues: https://salsa.debian.org/chromium-team/chromium/-/merge_requests/45

I believe that he would be an asset to Debian, and should have upload rights.
