- Debian status: I am a Debian developer.
All my packages are listed on my QA page (above). I am among those who welcome fixes for my packages, and won't really mind others fixing problems in my packages. All my non-comaintained packages are Low Threshold NMU ones, and almost all of the rest are team maintained; if some of them potentially belong to a team, do tell me and I'll ensure that it becomes team maintained.
Teams
I am a member of the following official teams:
Non-packaging activities
I try to participate regularly on Debian mailing lists. As part of my NM process, which was mentored by Luk Claes (my application manager), I involved myself with QA and release tasks, notably perusing and filing bugs against packages which fail to meet the "piuparts clean" release goal.
Other
I am making an effort to learn how to make Debian package using git. While I am not driving innovation, I am in the process of learning and following the experiments of others, notably Martin Krafft. Some interesting things to read are present in the VCSPackaging page.
