Debian Developer Certification
for Debian Developer
If you are a DD and you'd like an official certification of that fact, you can ask DPL to send it to you. It might be a nice addition to your resume.
Please remember that it takes anyhow some time to check the data and prepare one, so please refrain to ask one just for vanity; whereas if you need it for work or anything else: no problem, just go ahead and ask.
See example: example-certificate.pdf
how to ask for a certificate
create a patch against the master of the Git repository (preferred format is git format-patch)
- git clone git://git.debian.org/dpl/dpl.git
mail it to leader@debian.org asking for a certificate
- by default, you'll get back a signed PDF (i.e. including a "digitalized pen signature") and a detached GPG signature
Debian Project Leader
If you are DPL, you may use a LaTeX template created for that purpose. It's in the Git repository of the DPL alioth project.
