I don't really have any packages that I think really need to be pulled to community, maybe at some point later, but I would really like to start making zsh completion for a lot of packages which do not have it already. I could start by maintaining the zathura plugins and the haskell-syb package. So your main contribution as you see it now would be zsh completion?
-- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1 I would consider that my biggest contribution in the form of code thus far, but I consider helping people in #archilnux to be a larger contribution. I should also clarify the zsh completion stuff. I have been working on a couple of different utilities and plan on submitting

Hi,
I can't see a strong reason why you want to be a trusted user, since the main tasks are maintaining packages in [community] and managing AUR. It's nice that you want to make zsh completion scripts (however, it's generally an upstream task), but in a TU application, I would like to see, what kind of packages that you interested in maintaining in the future.
What kind of packages are you interested in? Is there any popular packages in AUR that you may want to maintain in [community] in the future (even if it's not currently maintained by you)?

Good question, I would really like to bring pianobar, archlinux-lxdm-theme, ttf-symbola, termite-git, and livestreamer. One of the big reasons I would like to be a TU is to help. There are 5586 packages in community, and 34 TU's listed on [1] which is just over 164 packages per TU. Basically my goal as a TU is to do my best to help archlinux and the aur be the best that it can and to give back to the great community that has evolved around Archlinux. 1. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Trusted_Users
