For nm.debian.org, at 2019-11-22:

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

I have been active around in the Debian India community involved in various roles
such as helping organize Mini Debian conferences in some Indian Cities, organizing
various Debian related talks, workshops, release parties etc.

I also do some software packaging, and I am part of the JavaScript, Ruby & Golang Teams. I was also a co-mentor for some Debian projects for Outreachy and Google Summer of Code.

My technical contributions to Debian could be seen on the links such as [1] QA Page [2] Debian portfolio

I applied for a non-uploading DD status last year in 2018. Due to various reasons, the process got delayed, sometimes for delay in replies by AMs, sometimes, delay in replies by me. Also when I met a few DM's and DD's this year, there saying was that I should have applied to become an uploading DD and not a non-uploading one as I am already maintain packages(although very few), also I help do a lot of Debian activities in India. Hence after closing my previous process I am re-applying as an uploading DD. I also hope to get back to actively managing my packages and also contribute to the various teams I am part of in Debian.

Debian Community and Eco System has highly influenced my life in personal and professional roles.

I attended DebConf in 2018 and 2019, and it was an awesome experience to see and interact in real with all the Debian people I admire a lot. At DebConf I got a better understanding of the project technically and socially by meeting the various DD's/DM's and a lot of contributors.

I want to keep contributing to Debian as it has now become an integral part of my social, professional and personal life. I want to give back to the community what I have gained over these years, and help more people discover the awesomeness of the Debian project.
