I, Agathe Porte, apply for core-dev.

I am applying because:

Remove any reasons that don't apply, add any extra reasons and edit as needed. These examples are the common cases, but are not a hard requirement for applications.

• I'd like to eliminate delays in getting my work sponsored.
• I'd like to reduce the burden on my sponsors.
• I am already a Debian Developer
• I want to help the Canonical Kernel Team with some tasks that can only be performed by coredevs

Who I am

Hi, I have been a Debian Developer with full upload rights since about two years. I currently maintain about 40 packages in Debian. I have joined Canonical a year ago. I have already contributed indirectly to Ubuntu because all of my Debian packages land in universe. I did not check, but probably some of them are also in main.

My Ubuntu story

Working in the Kernel Team at Canonical makes me a heavy user of different build tools in Ubuntu. I find various bugs, report them and fix them using the SRU process.

My involvement

Examples of my work / Things I'm proud of

I have a uploaded packages in Ubuntu to fix bugs as I encounter them. They span various sections: uvtool, plymouth, xkeyboard-config, autopkgtests, ... See also the ubuntu-sponsorship page: https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu-sponsorships.cgi?render=html&sponsor=&sponsor_search=name&sponsoree=agathe.porte%40canonical.com&sponsoree_search=email

Areas of work

- SRU bug fixes when I find them during day-to-day usage - Uploads related to the Canonical Kernel Team - Upload of Ubuntu-specific tooling when they do not make sense to upload in Debian

Things I could do better
