Greetings from San Francisco, and welcome to another round of Debian contribution logs. Days are getting darker and shorter as summer breezes out unamusingly. Perhaps it was not my coldest winter, but it was chilly anyway.

Greetings from a windy San Francisco. This blog is a bit quiet; let’s fix that. I will start making some noise by sharing my contributions to the Debian project.

After many years of virtually assisting DebConf — the annual Debian conference — I’ve finally had the opportunity of going and enjoying it in-person. This year it was held in Curitiba, Brasil.

A few weeks ago I published an article on ThousandEyes’ blog describing my experiences with Kafka Topics.

As of yesterday, I’ve been bestowed the title of Debian Maintainer.

Those who know me knows how much I admire the Debian project, so it’s truly an honor to get this recognition and be able to keep giving back to the community in a more autonomous way.
