Freexian’s report about Debian Long Term Support, November 2020

December 18, 2020 by Raphaël Hertzog

A Debian LTS logo Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS.

Individual reports

In November, 239.25 work hours have been dispatched among 13 paid contributors. Their reports are available:
  • Abhijith PA did 12.0h (out of 12h assigned).
  • Adrian Bunk did 13h (out of 22.75h assigned and 19.5h from October) and gave back 6.5h, thus carrying over 22.75h to December.
  • Ben Hutchings did 11.5h (out of 16h assigned and 4.5h from October), thus carrying over 9h to December.
  • Brian May did 10h (out of 10h assigned).
  • Chris Lamb did 18h (out of 18h assigned).
  • Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did 22.75h (out of 22.75h assigned).
  • Holger Levsen did 8.0h coordinating/managing the LTS team.
  • Markus Koschany did 12h (out of 22.75h assigned), thus carrying over 10.75h to December.
  • Ola Lundqvist did 1h (out of 12h assigned), thus carrying over 11h to December.
  • Roberto C. Sánchez did 20.5h (out of 22.75h assigned), thus carrying over 2.25h to December.
  • Sylvain Beucler did 22.75h (out of 22.75h assigned).
  • Thorsten Alteholz did 22.75h (out of 22.75h assigned).
  • Utkarsh Gupta did 22.75h (out of 22.75h assigned).

Evolution of the situation

In November we held the last LTS team meeting for 2020 on IRC, with the next one coming up at the end of January.
We announced a new formalized initiative for Funding Debian projects with money from Freexian’s LTS service.
Finally, we would like to remark once again that we are constantly looking for new contributors. Please contact Holger if you are interested!

We’re also glad to welcome two new sponsors, Moxa, a device manufacturer, and a French research lab (Institut des Sciences Cognitives Marc Jeannerod).

The security tracker currently lists 37 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file has 40 packages needing an update.

Thanks to our sponsors
