    Hi

    We are doing a roll call for porters of all prospective release
    architectures. If you are an active porter behind one of these
    architectures [1] and intend to continue for the development cycle of
    Debian Bookworm (est. release mid-2023), please respond with a signed
    email containing the following before Saturday, January 1, 2022:

    * Which architectures are you committing to be an active porter for?
    * Please describe recent relevant porter contributions.
    * Are you running/using Debian testing or sid on said port(s)?
    * Are you testing/patching d-i for the port(s)?

    Please note that no response is required for amd64 because our
    toolchain maintainers are happy to support amd64 as-is.

    Feel free to use the following template as your reply:

    Hi

    A friendly reminder about the porter roll call for bookworm.

    Please refer to the architecture requalification page [1] for the

    In case #1000435 (matplotlib crashes on mips64el) is not already on
    your radar, would you please take a look?

    Oops, too slow!

    * Which architectures are you committing to be an active porter for?

    arm64, amrhf, armel

    * Please describe recent relevant porter contributions.

    Manage the arm buildds at ARM.

    Worked on packaging AI/ML stuff
    Worked with rust team on unbunging
    Help with give-backs
    Look at build issues brought to the attention of the debian-arm list

    * Are you running/using Debian testing or sid on said port(s)?

    Largely only for building. I tend to run stable on boxes doing real
    work but switch to testing for half a release on development
    machines. I've never been a 'run sid on real machines' sort of person.

    * Are you testing/patching d-i for the port(s)?

    Yes. I have a pretty good understanding of how it works, and sometimes
    test/fix things on new (to me) hardware, or when people ask about
    specific things.

    I am an active porter for the following architectures and I intend to
    continue for the development cycle of Debian Bookworm
    (est. release mid-2023):

    For <ARCH>, I
    - test (most|all) packages on this architecture
    I have an arm64 desktop running stable and arm64/armhf/armel build machines
    I run an armhf home server (cubietruck) and an armel (Balloon) home controller
    I have various test hardware boards/machines
    - run a Debian testing or unstable system on port that I use regularly
    - fix toolchain issues
    - triage arch-specific bugs (recent example is spurious neon instructions in init code: 982794, 998043,
    - fix arch-related bugs
    - test d-i sometimes
    - fix d-i bugs/issues
    - maintain buildds (@ARM Cambridge site - reboots, network moves, new hard-drives + fans,
    justifying functionality that we need to ARM corporate security who like to turn things
    off, assuring them that we have already (usually) dealt with this week's security scare)

    I plan to do an armhf-64-bit-timet rebuild soon, to provide info on breakage and help plan that transition

    I will probably be retiring from paid debian work at ARM within a year
    or so. Which probably means handing the buildd admin off to someone as
    it'll make access a lot easier.

    That won't change my debian-arm focus much, but it will probably
    change it a bit (away from AI, towards core arch activities and my
    personal packages). I'm not sure how much of my current test hardware
    I'll get to keep...

    I am a DD (since 2000)
