 16:10 <meetingology> Meeting started at 16:10:30 UTC.  The chair is utkarsh2102.  Information about MeetBot at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology

 16:10 <meetingology> Available commands: action, commands, idea, info, link, nick

 16:10 <utkarsh2102> hey!

 16:10 <utkarsh2102> let’s start

 16:11 <utkarsh2102> #topic Ubuntu Contributing Developer

 16:11 <utkarsh2102> #subtopic Heather Ellsworth

 16:11 <utkarsh2102> #link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/hellsworth/ContributingDeveloperApplication

 16:11 <hellsworth> Hi everyone

 16:11 <utkarsh2102> hellsworth: hey, are you around?

 16:12 <hellsworth> indeed I am :)

 16:12 <hellsworth> thank you for considering my application

 16:12 <utkarsh2102> hi! can you introduce yourself please?

 16:12 <hellsworth> oh sure!

 16:14 <hellsworth> Hello, I'm Heather Ellsworth (hellsworth) and I've been on the desktop team for 3 years. I have focused most of my time on snap things and I help maintain around 40 gnome related snaps. I've also submitted and maintain gnome-shell-extension-manager  and 2 of its dependencies in debian, for ubuntu to sync. I've also done some Ubuntu community facing things too: I've been hosting the Ubuntu dekstop team indabas for a little over 2 years. And

 16:14 <hellsworth> I've written some technical blog posts on snap things, and Ubuntu Summit blog posts.

 16:15 <utkarsh2102> absolutely impressive!

 16:15 <utkarsh2102> I’ll open the floor for questions

 16:15 <hellsworth> ask away

 16:19 <sil2100> Reading all the endorsements, I have no questions myself

 16:19 <utkarsh2102> hellsworth: why didn’t you go for upload rights straightaway?

 16:19 <utkarsh2102> also what d’you plan on doing after becoming a Ubuntu Contributing dev?

 16:19 <bdmurray> hellsworth: Just out of curiousity are any of the sanps you maintain seeded?

 16:19 <hellsworth> Well I haven't really been blocked on needing upload rights. My packages have been sponsored in a reasonable amount of time.

 16:20 <hellsworth> Well I have worked significantly on the gnome-38-2204-sdk and platform snap. The platform snap is seeded on releases prior to lunar. I've continued to help out on the gnome-42-2204-sdk and its platform snap is seeded on lunar+

 16:21 <hellsworth> the gnome-calculator snap I believe is still seeded

 16:21 <hellsworth> we are looking at maybe seeding simple-scan for core-desktop, which I've just gotten updated and working so it is ready for seeding as well.

 16:22 <hellsworth> After becoming an Ubuntu Contributing dev, I really plan on doing the same things.

 16:22 <hellsworth> I would like to use an ubuntu email address for commits because I think it would be more community centric, instead of using a canonical email address.

 16:22 <utkarsh2102> gotcha!

 16:24 <hellsworth> While I enjoy working on snaps, I really enjoy deb packaging as well becuase it is more challenging. So my future plans include continuing to improve my skillset there and work towards becoming a debian maintainer, and Jeremy my mentor says I'm ready for that. I wanted to get through this process first though.

 16:25 <hellsworth> I would like to contribute more towards deb packaging and become a good +1 maintainer.

 16:25 <utkarsh2102> I swear we need that!

 16:25 <hellsworth> One day, I'd like to be a core dev but I'm not rushing it. I need more experience first.

 16:25 <utkarsh2102> anyway, I’m already good to vote and don’t have any questions

 16:26 <utkarsh2102> bdmurray, sil2100: any more questions?

 16:26 <bdmurray> not from me

 16:28 <utkarsh2102> okay, let’s proceed
