See http://nm.debian.org/nmstatus.php?email=ludovic%40ludovic-brenta.org for proof, if you don't believe me. The full process took 35 months since I started packaging gnat in Debian. I'm sure glad it is complete at last. Also, this will give me read-write access to the Subversion repository that holds the GCC build scripts. I'm not going to take advantage of that privilege just now, as my work on GCC 4.1 is complete. On the other hand, I anticipate I'll make quite a few package uploads in the next few weeks, without the need for a sponsor. Stay tuned for more announcements :-) Ah, one last thing: I am now in a position to sponsor other people who would like to contribute to Debian. So, if you too would like to maintain a few packages (or co-maintain them with me), please drop me a note. -- Ludovic Brenta.
