Assuming, of course, that Debian will accept them as a developer.
Are people with legitimate packaging interests being rejected?
That's a ridiculously simplistic question that I won't answer (hint:
there's a bit more to being a suitable person for Debian than having
``legitimate packaging interests''), but I will say, Steve Lamb's
implication is grossly unfair, as the number of rejections we've had
to do so far can be counted on the fingers of a very mutilated hand.
No, it is not grossly unfair. I did not cite numbers any more than I did
not. It was left up to the individual who read it to decide for themselves
what those numbers were. I can, however, prove that one person has been told
that they would not be accepted if they applied. That person is me.
So my statement is accurate and not a gross misrepresentation because,
as stated, no numbers were given... Malformed hand or not. :P
