||<>|| '''I, Marcelo Cerri, apply for DKMS package upload rights.''' || '''Name''' || Marcelo Cerri || || '''Launchpad Page''' || https://launchpad.net/~mhcerri || || '''Wiki Page''' || https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarceloCerri || As part of my responsibilities in the kernel team I usually need to fix DKMS and other packages in the LTS releases when a new hwe or edge cloud kernel is available. = Who I am = I have joined Canonical in July 2016 and I'm currently part of the Canonical kernel team, working mainly on the development of custom kernels but also helping with some of the tasks in the stable kernel team. = My Ubuntu story = I started using Linux around the year 2001 and my first contact with Ubuntu was in 2005 with the physical medias distributed by Canonical for 4.10. Ubuntu really got my attention at that moment, specially considering how user-friendly it was compared to other distros I had tried so far. After that I used Ubuntu as my main distro for several years. == My involvement == As noted above, my current involvement covers both custom kernels and a bit of stable kernel maintenance. This involves the following: * Bootstrapping new kernels. * Handling bug fixes and re-spins for custom kernels. * Backporting upstream features to custom kernels. * Eventually, fixing upstream issues that also affect Ubuntu kernels. * Reviewing and applying patches from kernel-team mailing list. * Reviewing and applying upstream stable patch sets. * Crank turning (prepare the kernel trees, close the versions and building the deb source packages) for all the main kernels and their derivatives and backports. * Automated Tests (ADT) management and bugs investigation. == Examples of my work / Things I'm proud of == The following is a list of my sponsored DKMS package uploads as in:

with the kernel stable team. In both cases fixing packages affected by the release of new hwe or edge kernels is part of my responsibilities. == Things I could do better == I have worked mainly with kernel packages or kernel related packages (DKMS, initramfs-tools, linux-base, etc). I'd like to expand my experience to other kinds of packages. = Comments = ''If you'd like to comment, but are not the applicant or a sponsor, do it here.

(How many packages did you sponsor? How would you judge the quality? How would you describe the improvements? Do you trust the applicant?) I have sponsoreed a number of uploads (which you will find in the section below) for dkms packages for Marcelo, and I am very happy about the quality of his work. Marcelo has always been very thorough in his approach, and I trust his contributions to the packages. As a sponsor, I endorse Marcelo's application, and I look forward to seeing more of his contributions in the Ubuntu archive. === Specific Experiences of working together === ## Full list of sponsored packages can be generated here: ## https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu-sponsorships.cgi ||2017-12-04 12:12||Alberto Milone||Marcelo Henrique Cerri||nvidia-graphics-drivers-340||340.104-0ubuntu0.16.04.1||xenial-proposed||sru|| ||2018-07-16 16:48||Alberto Milone||Marcelo Henrique Cerri||lttng-modules||2.8.0-1ubuntu1~16.04.6||xenial|| ||2018-11-22 11:37||Alberto Milone||Marcelo Henrique Cerri||lttng-modules||2.10.5-1ubuntu1.2||bionic|| ||2019-02-06 16:37||Alberto Milone||Marcelo Henrique Cerri||rtl8812au||4.3.8.12175.20140902+dfsg-0ubuntu10||disco|| ||2019-02-07 12:15||Alberto Milone||Marcelo Henrique Cerri||dahdi-linux||1:2.11.1~dfsg-1ubuntu5||disco|| ||2019-11-08 07:07||Alberto Milone||Anthony Wong||rtl8821ce||5.2.5.2.1.30816.20190425-0ubuntu1~18.04.1||bionic|| ||2019-11-13 14:05||Alberto Milone||Marcelo Henrique Cerri||bcmwl||6.30.223.271+bdcom-0ubuntu5~18.04.1||bionic|| ||2019-11-13 19:10||Alberto Milone||Marcelo Henrique Cerri||broadcom-sta||6.30.223.271-8ubuntu0.1||bionic|| == Timo Aaltonen == === General feedback === I've sponsored a number of uploads for Marcelo over the years, and it's about time for him to gain the rights to upload DKMS' directly. I can't remember there being any issues with the uploads, and I trust him to do the right thing in the future as well. === Specific Experiences of working together === You can find those from the table above, 22 uploads in total. == Tyler Hicks (tyhicks) == === General feedback === Marcelo and I have worked together on many fronts over the years. From preparing high stress emergency kernel updates to fix security flaws and major regressions to much lower stress work like fixing DKMS build issues. :) Marcelo is always a joy to work with and he's very trustworthy developer to work alongside. === Specific Experiences of working together === Marcelo has provided a nice list of DKMS uploads that I've sponsored for him. I looked back through the feedback that I provided to Marcelo in some of the early sponsorships. Even though the feedback was minor (missing dep-3 patch tags, mostly) and those uploads were already of sufficient quality, he took it to heart and provided even higher quality uploads in later sponsorships. What I like the most during my experiences working with Marcelo is his ability to always stay calm, gather all the required information to tackle the problem at hand, and then go get the work done in an efficient manner. === Areas of Improvement === I think Marcelo is certainly qualified for DKMS upload rights and want to see him continue to expand his upload rights. ---- ''As a sponsor, just copy the template below, fill it out and add it to this section.'' ---- == TEMPLATE == {{{ == == === General feedback === ## Please fill us in on your shared experience.
