Probably it makes sense to publish a set of tasks to do for d-i to make people know what skills they need for working on it.

Otavio Salvador is the current release manager for d-i since quite some time. So we don't need a new leader. That said the team can always benefit from new volunteers.

Frans Pop (fjp) died on August 20th. Frans was involved in Debian as a maintainer of several packages, a supporter of the S/390 port, and one of the most involved members of the Debian Installer team. He was a Debian Listmaster, editor and release manager of the Installation Guide and the release notes, as well as a Dutch translator. The Debian Project honours his good work and strong dedication to Debian and Free Software. Frans' broad technical knowledge and his ability to share that knowledge with others will be missed. The contributions of Frans will not be forgotten, and the high standards of his work will continue to serve as an inspiration to others. :'( Do we have any more information on Frans's death? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
