Hello, I'm Leonidas Spyropoulos and I'd like to apply to become a Trusted User. I'm particularly instersted in packaging dependencies which are required for the ongoing python porting of Aurweb and anything related performance. I'm sponsored from Jelle van der Waa <jelle> and Sven-Hendrik Haase<sventaro>. I'm a 39 years old Software Developer living in London originally from Greece. I've been an Linux user for almost 20 years and an Arch Linux for more than 15. Previous distributions include Suse and Debian but I find Arch Linux suits me more. I've been a big supported of FOSS philosophy and projects and try to contribute where possible (check my github). I'm a developer in my day-to-day job working mostly with JVM languages and DevOps. For the minimum requirements: - I know my way around shell scripting, mostly bash but I've done some ksh due to my work maintaining old server. These days almost all scripting is in bash and POSIX compliant. My daily shell is ZSH. - I've been maintaining some packages in AUR [1] and some have moved to community (i.e. neomutt, dvdstyler). I believe some of the current ones are good enough PKGBUILDs to be moved to community repository. - I've suscribed to most mailing lists and replied a few times, but I'm easier to be contacted in IRC. My forum activity is low since I find IRC more responsive. - I can Google around - For packages I want to maintain see list below My contributions so far in Arch Linux are mostly: - AUR packaging [1] - AUR development (aurweb) with code reviews, testing and development in python porting (and some php) [2] - DevOps keycloak theme packaging [3] - DevOps patches for various issues [4] - Actively involved in DevOps IRC for pitching in solutions to current issues/discussions AUR packages (I maintain) interested in moving to Community - Any package which will be a requirement for python ported Aurweb version - aarchup - python-prometheus-fastapi-instrumentator - freeplane - intellij-idea-{ce,ue}-eap (Provided their license is allowing that) - gdu AUR packages interested in moving to Community - abook - bfg - clean-chroot-manager - goland - jdtls - jetbrains-toolbox - tectonic I'd also be interesting in maintaining some Community packages which are orphan or co-maintain some: orphans: - elasticsearch packages I use and interested in {co-}maintaining: - ansible - aurpublish - aws-cli - ccache - cpupower - docker - docker-compose - go - gradle - kotlin - kubectl - lrzip - neomutt (used to be co-maintainer in aur) - notmuch - profile-sync-daemon - alot - android-file-transder - android-tools - android-udev - beets - bpytop - dvdbackup (used to maintain in aur) - cuda - fstrim - gcc10 (required for cuda) - handbrake - kitty - ncmpcpp - ninja - nextcloud-client - nlohmann-json - packer - pacman-contrib - pandoc - profile-cleaner - python-* (packages required for Aurweb see list from INSTALL) - screenfetch - spellcheck - signal-desktop - wxsvg (required from dvdbackup) - zsh-completions Github: https://github.com/inglor AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/account/artafinde Forums: https://bbs.archlinux.org/profile.php?id=17838 Bugs: https://bugs.archlinux.org/user/10369 IRC: artafinde | inglor [1]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&SeB=M&K=artafinde&outdated=&SB=n&SO=a&PP=50&do_Search=Go [2]: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/aurweb/-/merge_requests?scope=all&state=all&author_username=artafinde [3]: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/artafinde/keycloak-archlinux-theme/-/tree/multi...

It's a great community and I've thoroughly enjoyed my time so far. Kind Regards, Leonidas -- Leonidas Spyropoulos A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
