Can someone give me the right permissions (perhaps by creating an empty repository gnome-kiosk - if I'm not mistaken this needs Maintainer permissions which I do not need in future).

The Debian GNOME team doesn't yet have a written policy for joining
the team but we need to do that.
However, it is common practice for us to grant Developer access to
Debian Developers who ask. Thank you for introducing yourself here!
If you're going to be on the Debian GNOME team, I encourage you to
subscribe to the low-traffic debian-gtk-gnome list.
Also, our preferred packaging layout is described at https://wiki.debian.org/Gnome/Git
The gnome-kiosk repo was created a while ago because I had someone who
also expressed interest in packaging gnome-kiosk but they never
finished their packaging and haven't worked on it in a while. You are
welcome to work on it instead.
Thank you,
We don't have a CI policy yet. However, we prefer to use
debian/salsa-ci.yml (like you did). I have updated the project
settings for it now.
Just pushed the status we reached in the workshop.
Could you please start over on packaging using the branch names
specified on our wiki? In particular, git doesn't handle using upstream/latest if an upstream branch already exists. We also import
the full upstream git history. See this section:
https://wiki.debian.org/Gnome/Git#Initial_packaging
I have given both you and Mohammed direct Maintainer access to
gnome-kiosk and removed you from the rest of the Debian GNOME team
since I think that better reflects what you are requesting.
Thank you,
BTW, I noticed that I have no permissions to switch on Salsa CI which
I'm very used to. For instance it would have helped to show lintian
issues easily by pointing at the relevant CI test. What is the policy
in Gnome team to use Salsa CI?
Just pushed the status we reached in the workshop.
Hi again,
Mohammed, could you please confirm you are up to this task? If you
need
any help please ask - may be here at this list to rely on your new team members and keep me in CC since I somehow feel responsible for this.
