Yes, I'm top posting. It's been 7 days. I'll raise a poll on the AUR for Seb's application. Please vote! Thanks, dave On Mon, Nov 07, 2011 at 05:15:45AM +0100, Seblu wrote:
Hello,
I'm applying to be a TU. My sponsor is Dave Reisner.
As you may remember, I already applied 10 months ago [1]. Since that time, my motivation is still the same and i had time to be more involved in the community, participating in development of initscripts[2], mkinitcpio[3], pacman[4]. You can find my working tree on github [7].
I currently maintaining 40 packages in AUR, with a total of 5708 votes [8]. 12 of them have been created by me. You can find pre-version of most PKGBUILD i maintain in my svn [6].
For my own needs i setup binary repositories [5] with packages i use on my computers. I'm currently working on an AUR build bot which i will use to automatically build some packages from AUR (which i trust) and push it inside a dedicated repository. It will be released in opensource. After that, i will propose an implementation of a better handling of vcs packages in makepkg.
If you let me join the TU team, i would add some of "my" AUR packages to community (list not exhaustive): - cpupower - perf - ebtables - ferm - nload - vconfig - ipset - sfk - ext4magic - kerneltop - linux-kvm (if linus merge it in 3.2)
I would also move package i use every days to community like (list not exhaustive): - arptables - atftp - cfv - conntrack-tools - lantencytop - sshpass - picocom - lsscsi - libmnl (needed by ipset) - rxvt
Unfortunatly i doesn't use orphan packages [9] so i don't think adopt orphans.
Thanks,
