If I am elected DPL, one of the first things I will do, is a check-in with all delegated teams, and ask them what support and time they might need from me over the coming year, and ask them for a sense of how they feel things are going. I would make plans accordingly. Of course, if it was brought to my attention that someone was unhappy with a team's service, I'd remind them that we are all volunteers, but I'd look into the expressed concerns and discuss them with the team in question. I would see if the team understands where the concerns are coming from and if they feel there is anything we could do to help the situation. Cheers, Brian signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Yes, I agree with Sam that the next DPL should do a better job of dealing with delegations. That means being available and reserving some bandwidth for delegations even when other exciting things are happening. Also actively checking in on delegations that are known to need some support, like the DebConf team in the period before Debconf starts and probably also scheduled check-ins with delegations like the treasurers. -Jonathan -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ Jonathan Carter (highvoltage) ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ https://wiki.debian.org/highvoltage ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋ https://debian.org | https://jonathancarter.org ⠈⠳⣄ Be Bold.

Question for all candidates: Sam's non-platform: Delegates
Hello, In his non-platform, Sam wrote If I were running as DPL, figuring out how to do a better job of managing delegations, respecting both the current delegates and the needs of the project, would be my priority for the next year. I hope that the candidates who step forward take on this challenge. Do you agree? If so, how do you propose to take on the challenge? Thanks. -- Sean Whitton signature.asc Description: PGP signature
