Hi,

I'd happily participate in co-maintenance. I have no upload permissions
at present, though I'd be interested in moving towards DM and Ubuntu
PPU. I think I'd clear the skills requirement for both. I might have to
spent a while increasing my active participation to gather more advocacy
though. My GPG key is of sufficient cryptographic strength, but has only
1 DD sig (Jelmer).

Max.
