Hi Tim, great to finally see your application here! Just wanted to drop this in: I've known Tim for years and we've become very good friends. For the last three years we've actually been colleagues at work so I'd like to vouch for him in a less formal/official capacity. We've been working several times on his AUR PKGBUILDs in the past but due to recent personal time constraints I was unable to do a final review and thus stepped down from official sponsorship. So while I cannot (in good faith) attest to the current state of these PKGBUILDs, I can however confirm that he is always interested in properly learning the way certain things work and is always aiming towards following best practices with whatever technology, tooling or framework he is faced. You may or may not take this into consideration, I always like to know if there are pre-existing aquaintances between Devs/TUs and applicants. Depending on how well you know the Devs/TUs in question, this might help judging the applicant. I, for one, am looking forward to working with him on Arch if he makes it through the voting process.

I hereby confirm my sponsorship. May the discussion period begin! Furthermore I would like to point out Tim's excellent work and help regarding our puppet packages and other ruby packages. I had to disown the puppet packages yesterday, because I thought I am not the right person for this job. With Tim we would have a puppet contributor and someone who actually knows what he is doing in terms of puppet. Chris signature.asc Description: PGP signature

[aur-general] TU application - bastelfreak
Hi! I'm Tim Meusel and I want to spent more time in the Arch Linux community and increase the package quality. I first got in touch with open source some years ago in the Puppet Community [0] where I started to love Puppet and FOSS. At the moment I'm employed at a big ISP where I maintain a few thousand systems. My solution of choice for configuration management is Puppet because it fulfills all requirements and is easy to extend. For a few projects I require up2date systems with modern software, that's why i choose Arch Linux. Since Puppet was already present in the company, the Arch Linux boxes were puppetized as well. I wrote or contributed to multiple packages related to Puppet on Arch Linux. foxxx0 and shibumi were so kind to continue maintaining them in the official repositories: * puppet [1] * puppet5 [2] * facter [3] * libwhereami [4] * ruby-deep_merge [5] * ruby-httpclient [6] * ruby-sync [7] * ruby-puppet-resource_api [8] * ruby-semantic_puppet [9] Besides working on open source projects, I spent a huge amount of time for my second passion, cooking and doing BBQ. From time to time I also attend ice hockey events as visitor but also as hobby-referee or player. As a trusted user I would like to co-maintain those packages, enable tests on the PKGBUILDs where tests are currently missing (for example ruby-puppet-resource_api, ruby-semantic_puppet and Puppet), fix the remaining namcap warnings (for example on facter and libwhereami) and also import some other Puppet related tools into the official repository. Some of them are already in the AUR (not all maintained by myself): * fluent-bit (not Puppet related) [10] * ruby-gettext-setup [11] * ruby-minitar [12] * ruby-puppet_forge [13] * ruby-rr [14] * ruby-cri [15] * ruby-test-unit-rr [16] * ruby-fast_gettext [17] * ruby-gettext [18] * ruby-locale [19] * ruby-text [20] * ruby-colored2 [21] * r10k [22] If you check my AUR packages, you might notice the awful ruby-log4r package. That's a dead project where the source code is gone. It's a dependency for r10k. I'm "maintaining" ruby-log4r in the AUR, so I can test and build r10k, but I'm also in contact with the upstream developers to replace this dead dependency. I've no intention to get log4r into any official repository. I talked to shibumi and hashworks in the past days, both reviewed the packages and agreed to sponsor my application. I'm available on Freenode as bastelfreak. I'm pretty active in #archlinux.de and #voxpupuli.
