For nm.debian.org, at 2017-08-10:
I support Ming-ting Yao Wei <mwei@lxde.org>'s request to become Debian Developer, uploading.

I have personally worked with Ming-ting Yao Wei <mwei@lxde.org> (key FED5434845287DF262931489CFBBFCE0B74F1B14) to
maintain Chinese input method gcin and hime, and I also help to sponsor his lxterminal for CVE-2016-10369. He can figure
out how to prepare package properly via official document with only a little hint (ex: give him keyword "dbgsym" and he
can figure out how to migrate from dbg to dbgsym). And he also do a great job on gcin, hime license cleanup.

Beside technical skill, I also work with him as DebConf18 local team. He is the one who is willing to do the hard work.
For example, he went to all our venue candidates and took lots of pictures, he coordiated people to make DebConf18 LOGO,
he joined the video team in DebConf17 so that we know how it works, etc. His passion is essential for DebConf18 local
team, and for Debian.

And I know Ming-ting Yao Wei can be trusted to be a full member of Debian, and have unsupervised, unrestricted upload rights, right now.

For nm.debian.org, at :
I support Ming-ting Yao Wei <mwei@lxde.org>'s request to become Debian Developer, uploading.
I have meet Ming-ting Yao Wei, several years ago, 2009, when we had MiniDebConf in Taiwan, since
then I have been sharing DebConf experiences with him in Heidelberg and Montreal. I have not
directly worked with 'mwei' in technical matters, besides he worked on upstream patch to add
Chinese input method to libinput (which I happen to co-maintain). I am confident he is quite able to
move around Debian infrastructure in proper way. On the other hand, I have been working with
'mwei' preparing DebConf 18 in Taiwan and he has proved to be a great asset for DebConf
organization team taking core tasks in the critical path for DebConf to happen. In the same
way I believe 'mwei' will be a great asset for Debian development.

I have personally known Ming-ting Yao Wei <mwei@lxde.org> (key FED5434845287DF262931489CFBBFCE0B74F1B14) for 9 years time,
and I know Ming-ting Yao Wei can be trusted to be a full member of Debian, and have unsupervised, unrestricted upload rights, right now.
