This page collects statements of advocacy for Unit 193 <unit193@debian.org> to become a Debian Maintainer.

You must be logged in to submit a statement of advocacy. See the Single Sign-On page for details and https://sso.debian.org/ to obtain a suitable client certificate.

See here for details about advocating someone to be a Debian Maintainer. You should be familiar with their existing work within Debian and believe it to be of a sufficient standard that they can be trusted with upload rights to the packages they maintain.

Please be verbose if you can. You may want to write the advocacy in a proper text editor and paste it in the form when you are happy with it.

Note: An email with your advocacy message will be sent to the debian-newmaint public mailing list.

For nm.debian.org, at 2016-07-13:
I support Unit 193 <unit193@ubuntu.com>'s request to become Debian Maintainer.
I have worked with Unit 193 on cmst and sqlitestudio. Both their packaging and
communication skills are solid.

I have personally worked with Unit 193 <unit193@ubuntu.com> (key
8DB3E586865D2B4A2B185A5C5001E1B09AA3744B) for year, and I know Unit 193 can be
trusted to have upload rights for their own packages, right now.

I support Unit 193 <unit193@ubuntu.com>'s request to become Debian Maintainer.
I have worked with Unit 193 on virtualbox-ext-pack, and I remember having sponsored many more packages for him since a lot of time.
I worked together with Unit 193 <unit193@ubuntu.com> (key 8DB3E586865D2B4A2B185A5C5001E1B09AA3744B) for some time now, and
I even remember asking him to apply for DM a while ago, because he has strong packaging skills, and did help me in many times for my packaging improvements.
We already had a private discussion about the identity check, but this is something want to leave to other people, I just want to discuss his knowledge and
packaging skills here.

I also support Unit's request to become a Debian Maintainer.

I have seen parts of his work recently, esp. the effort he undertook to package VeraCrypt and TrueCrypt (which we cannot have in Debian unfortunately). We have agreed to continue maintenance on basis of git.debian.org, so that people can build the latest version from source if needed.

Hope this DM process ends up successfully, I hope Unit, you can find DDs in person who sign your anonymized key.
