That's is not intended to take anything away from the 17 year old genius out there, but that age = experience typically tends to provide a "more steady hand on the rudder" for lack of better words.

[aur-general] TU application - raster
Hi Everyone. I'm Carsten - or Raster. Sponsors: eschwartz and shibumi agreed to +1 me I'm upstream founder of enlightenment, EFL, terminology and a few other things. I work at Arm in Cambridge, UK (and live here). I've been involved in OSS and releasing software since like 1995/96 or so for Linux (And other Unixen at the time). I've worked on several distributions - RedHat, Debian (made custom variant, not upstream) and Tizen. I pretty much eat, breathe and sleep C, and of course that comes with the requisite "I can drive a shell script off a cliff gracefully" developer skill-set. Linux is my OS. I don't dual boot. All my machines are Linux machines without booting into anything else and that's been the way for me for me since I got my first PC in 1996 after I had to give up on the Amiga. This PC then ran just Linux and nothing else (never saw a DOS or Windows install). In fact all but 2 of my machines are Arch Linux (Rockpro64 dev board (debian SID) and my Ampere Emag aarch64 workstation (Ubuntu), my pinephone has Manjaro for now which is kind-of-close to Arch...). I already maintain the AUR packages for efl-git, enlightenment-git, rage-git, efl-git-asan, enlightenment-git-asan and have for a long while now (also co-maintain terminology-git). You can see that I'm responsive to issues people bring up and fix them pretty fast. I have done some edits to the arch wiki as well over time. I will admit - I haven't really touched the Arch forums... I'm really an IRC/Email person, but I am on #archlinux, #archlinux-offtopic (and #archlinux-arm) most of the time. I've been using arch as my primary/only distro now for maybe about 4-5 years. I like its simplicity and "don't patch/modify things from upstream unless absolutely needed" policy (as an upstream I smile warmly at this direction). It's very developer friendly... and that's who I am. I also run ALARM on my Rapsberry Pis. I do spend most of my effort on the upstream work on these E related projects as those are what I write, release, add features to and fix bugs in. I'm about as googlable as it gets: ras...@rasterman.com http://www.rasterman.com I know that there are a lot of packages to maintain for a very small number of people, so I'm happy to help out. I'd be best at taking over or being co-maintainer of: * efl * enlightenment * terminology Other packages I can add to community: * rage (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rage - i maintain rage-git already) * evisum (https://www.enlightenment.org/news/2020-06-07-evisum-05-release) And in future any others that I think are past the bar of "worth including in Arch community rather than AUR" over time (there are ones brewing or lurking like EDI https://www.enlightenment.org/about-edi, Ephoto https://www.enlightenment.org/about-ephoto, Enventor https://www.enlightenment.org/about-enventor) I'd also be happy to help maintain packages I know I depend on and work with that might be a bit niche like: * packagekit * ddcutil And in general just help attack anything that I know enough about to be a bit better than a bowl of dried up custard at that is in my general sphere of knowledge/use.
