I would love to have a separate Debian Eletronics Blend to be able to better
categorize the various types of electronics packages.

I am maintaining a number of electronics-related packages (for ASIC/FPGA
development) in the Debian Science team. The reason I've chosen Debian Science
is that it feels like a much more active communitity and it was FAR easier to find
sponsors for packages there. I will become an DD any day now - waiting for the
key to become uploaded to the archive! :)  When being a DD, I don't need the
sponsoring help anymore, and I might then consider moving all the packages I
have brought into Debian Science to pkg-electronics. I am also willing to
contribute to the maintenance of a new blend - if there will be one. I guess I
can then even start sponsoring packages for the electronics team, to make it
easier for myself 4 years ago. ;)

But then I first have to become a member of the team.

Best regards
Ruben
