I support Diederik de Haas <didi.debian@cknow.org>'s request to become
a Debian Developer, non-uploading.  I have worked with Diederik de
Haas as part of the Raspberry Pi Debian support team for about two
years, and I consider them as having more than sufficient technical
competence (quite more than myself FWIW).

Diederik has provided several patches for fixing various issues both
in the raspi-firmware¹ and the scripts for creating the Raspberry Pi
images we distribute in raspi.debian.net², as well as in the project
web page itself³ — You can look for his work in the commit logs, but
also in the issues on the projects; his input has always been
insightful and kind.

¹ https://salsa.debian.org/debian/raspi-firmware/
² https://salsa.debian.org/raspi-team/image-specs/
³ https://salsa.debian.org/raspi-team/web-raspi-img/

I am very happy Diederik de Haas stepped forward and submitted his NM
application. I know he can be trusted to be a full member of Debian,
right now.
