After becoming a DM at Debconf12 in Managua, Nicaragua and entering the NM queue during Debconf13 in Vaumarcus, Switzerland I received the mail about 24 hours too late to officially become a DD during Debconf14 in Portland, USA. Nevertheless it was a very pleasant surprise to find the mail in my INBOX this morning confirming that my account had been created and that I was officially ijc@debian.org. Thanks to everyone who helped/encouraged me along the way!

I don't imagine much will change in practice, I intend to remain involved in the kernel and Debian Installer efforts as well as continuing to contribute to the Xen packaging and to maintain qcontrol (both in Debian and upstream) and sunxi-tools. I suppose I also still maintain ivtv-utils and xserver-xorg-video-ivtv but they require so little in the way of updates that I'm not sure they count.
