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

I'm a Debian user, and Debian is my main OS, since 1999 and a Debian
Maintainer since last year.

My professional career is focused in IT Infrastructure and Debian has
always been an important part of it.
Some of the Debian related work I've been doing in my job include:

- - Customize a Debian install to use in the company's desktops;
- - Create and maintain customized packages for desktop and server in a local
  maintained repository;
- - Create documentation and material to provide basic Debian courses to new
  employees;
- - Administrate several Debian servers providing a great variety of services
  such as DHCP, DNS, web servers, proxy, samba, nextcloud and many others.

My work in Debian:

- - I maintain the following packages as a Debian Maintainer: dhex, eqonomize,
  etktab, ipcalc-ng, ipqalc, mpack, openresolv, puzzle-jigsaw, qcalcfilehash
  and sudoku-solver;
- - I'm also reintroducing the x-tile package to Debian;
- - I did several QA work on orphaned packages;
- - Some Debian web pages translation with the Localization Team for Brazilian
  Portuguese.

The main reason to become a DD uploading is to be able to upload new
packages myself, but here's what I intend to do as a Debian Developer
(if my application is approved):

- - Increase greatly the QA work I already do with orphaned packages since I
  won't have to bother others to sponsor my work;
- - Help to bring new people to contribute to Debian;
- - Help people that are already contributing, acting as a sponsor for people
  that send their packages to Debian Mentors, reviewing and helping then to
  improve the quality of their work before uploading the package to the
  archive;
- - General bug fixing.
