A couple of months ago,
Steve McIntyre introduced the notion of Developer
Certification. In essence, if you are (or have been) a
Debian
Developer, you can ask for a certificate of that status of
yours; that might be useful in case you need to "prove" it to
anyone
(more precisely: to anyone who would care about /
believe in a certificate ...).
Some people has asked me to provide such certificates and at the
n-th iteration I took the chance to streamline a bit the process
(yes, I'm lazy). In case you're interested, please check the
DDCertificate wiki
page and follow the instructions there.
While you are at it, join me in thanking Agnieszka Cicha-Cisek and
Patryk Cisek, as they have prepared the LaTeX template.
Some other people were interested in being certified, but missed
the announcement, so I'm blogging about it mainly to spread the
news. Paul Wise has already
submitted
a request for proper documentation of this possibility.
We currently don't have a template for
Debian
Maintainers, but it should be straightforward to add:
patches are welcome!
