Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS.
Individual reports
In May, about 202 work hours have been dispatched among 12 paid contributors. Their reports are available:
- Abhijith PA did 6 hours (out of 10 hours allocated + 5 extra hours, he gave back the 9 remaining hours).
- Antoine Beaupré did nothing (out of 12 hours allocated, thus keeping 12 extra hours for June).
- Ben Hutchings did 15 hours.
- Brian May did 10 hours.
- Chris Lamb did 18 hours.
- Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did 33.75 hours (out of 24 hours allocated + 9.75 remaining hours).
- Holger Levsen did 6.5h (out of 32.75 remaining hours, the unused hours have been put back in the pool).
- Hugo Lefeuvre did 24.25 hours.
- Markus Koschany did 24.25 hours.
- Ola Lundqvist did 9 hours (out of 14 hours allocated + 12.5 remaining hours, thus keeping 17.5 extra hours for June).
- Roberto C. Sanchez did 6.5 hours (out of 18 hours allocated, thus keeping 11.5 extra hours for June).
- Santiago Ruano Rincón did 1 hour (out of 8 hours allocated, thus keeping 7 extra hours for June).
- Thorsten Alteholz did 24.25 hours.
Evolution of the situation
The number of sponsored hours increased to 190 hours per month thanks to a few new sponsors who joined to benefit from Wheezy’s Extended LTS support.
We are currently in a transition phase. Wheezy is no longer supported by the LTS team and the LTS team will soon take over security support of Debian 8 Jessie from Debian’s regular security team.
