I make this announcement with great pride. After a year or so of
mentoring, my young and talented Padawan, Xavier Grave, has been
accepted as a Debian Maintainer[1,2,3]. Xavier is the maintainer of
three new packages in Debian:
liblog4ada -- An Ada library for flexible logging
libxmlezout -- Easy-to-use library for emitting XML from Ada programs
polyorb(*) -- Multiple-personality middleware for Ada
(*) together with Reto Buerki and myself
In addition, he will adopt the following existing package:
music123 -- A command-line shell for sound-file players
and he occasionally helps maintain:
gnat-gps -- The GNAT Programming System - advanced IDE for C and Ada
Now that he is a Debian Maintainer, he has the right to upload new
versions of his packages to the Debian archive without supervision
from a sponsor. In time, I do hope he will grow into a full Debian
Developer with voting rights, the right to upload any package and to
sponsor packages for his own Padawans :)

I started from the already excellent packages by Samuel Tardieu. I also
learned a lot from Matthias Klose, the leade maintainer for GCC and
related packages, who was also my sponsor. Some parts I learned the
hard way (long hours reading and re-reading documentation, processing
bug reports, etc.) Overall it took me three years from the time I
started to the time when I became a Debian Developer. There was no
intermediate Debian Maintainer status at that time.

Back near a keyboard I can thanks you Ludovic for all your help,
sponsoring, teaching, ... :)
I'll try to have packages as clean and bug less as Ada allow us.
