Declaration of intent

The most important requirement for changing status in Debian is to make sure that a person actually intends to do so.

This requirement has been approved by Housekeeping Robot <nm@debian.org> 6 years, 11 months ago.

I would like to apply to change my status in Debian to Debian Developer, uploading.

I've participated in the Debian community since 2010 by packaging smaller packages, participating at 3 DebConfs, 2 MiniDebConfs and several smaller events.

Unfortunately I have never been paid to work with Debian and therefor my contributions were at a low level and even suspended for the last 2 years.

I decided that I will reserve 4h per week now for Debian work. I therefor want to re-start my DD process that got stalled 2 years ago when my previous application manager vanished.

While packaging is a nice contribution to Debian, I learned that it is hard to contribute anything to the Debian infrastructure without a DD status. I wanted for example to help with a Package Entropy Tracker instance for the Debian Haskell team but could not get access to a machine just as a Debian Maintainer.
