blog » October 17, 2006/I'm a DD!

No, I’m not talking about bra sizes. As of yesterday, I am now officially a Debian developer (DD), which means I am a full member of one of the largest free software projects out there. I officially applied to be a DD on September 1 of last year, which means that the entire process has taken me one year, one month, and 17 days, most of it waiting in one of the various queues. It’s a bit better than I expected — when I started out, my estimate was about a year and a half.

Thanks to all my sponsors who have uploaded my packages for me so far. Now I’ll be uploading my own packages, with my @debian.org account. So eventually this page should become more empty, and this page should become more full.
