LWN interview with Branden Robinson, outgoing Debian Project Leader
What I'd like to do next is see if I can mold myself into an example of what I'm beginning to think of as the "good Debian citizen". I've had the benefit of an "insider's view" of what's right and wrong at the core of the Project -- what I think is critical now is to better uphold clause four of our Social Contract, in which we commit to openness with our users. That clause talks specifically about bug tracking, but many within the Project think we should apply it more generally.
Some Debian developers have an ambivalent relationship with the Project's "insiders" because, simultaneously, they are details of infrastructure management that most of them don't care to know about -- except when they're perceived as not working. In that case, they demand satisfaction. I don't particularly decry this so much as note it to be human nature.
