[aur-general] TU Application: Johannes Löthberg
Hello, This is my official application to become a Trusted User, as Jelle decided to sponsor me So, a little info about me. My name is Johannes Löthberg, I’m currently 19 years old, at the end of the last year of my Gymnasium education, and I live in Stockholm, Sweden. I sometimes do some light programming, in either C or Python[1][2], I like to do server and network administration. Currently I am an Arch Linux IRC operator, occasionally take a stroll through the Arch bug-tracker, and have sent in small number of patches to makpkg/pacman[3][4], and maintain a couple of packages in the AUR. Some packages I would like to maintain in [community] are, among others, np1-mps[5], mps-youtube[6], spambayes[7], irker[8], and rhash[#]. Some of the orphans in [community] I’d like to adopt are ncmpcpp, nss-pam-ldapd, and python{,2}-msgpack, and possibly Apache Directory Studio if I can get it packaged sanely. Additionally, I’d also like to help maintain some of the Haskell packages.

Dear TUs, As an extra side note about Johannes's experience, he diligently maintains his own custom repo with several quality packages. So, he is already familiar with much of the repo maintenance schtick. Johannes, I am clearly not a TU, but as an interested member of the AL peanut gallery, I'd be interested to hear whether or not there are some groups of packages (not the packages themselves, but rather, a theme or type of package) that you are interested in maintaining. Put more plainly, what kind of packages interest you (you mentioned Haskell packages, for example, is that because Haskell interests you, or are there particular Haskell packages that you'd like to see in [community])? Full disclosure: though not a TU myself, I would wholeheartedly support Johannes's joining the team and he would have my vote if I had one to give. All the best, --- Sam Stuewe

Two related groups of packages I’m interested in are LDAP and Kerberos packages. I couldn’t adopt krb5 and openldap since they are in [core], but I’d like to maintain related packages like nss-pam-ldapd, pam-krb5, and possibly things like mod_auth_kerb, which is an Apache module for Kerberos authentication, and apachedirectorystudio if I can get it packages more nicely as an eclipse plugin instead of just dumping their binaries in /opt. I’m also interested in some media packages, like np1-mps and mps-youtube which are music streaming clients, cmusfm and mpdscribble which are last.fm scrobblers for cmus and mpd respectively, Other than that, I don’t use much Haskell things, but the language does interest me, and I also know that it’s something of a pain to maintain the packages, so I thought that more help with that could be nice. -- Sincerely, Johannes Löthberg PGP Key ID: 0x50FB9B273A9D0BB5 https://theos.kyriasis.com/~kyrias/

Having little experience with either group, I cannot offer much on the topic, but it sounds like you have some clear idea of what you'd like to offer :)
