Martin Michlmayr

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dr. Martin Michlmayr is a Debian developer working on quality management.

Michlmayr became a member of the Debian project in 2000 and soon began work as an Application Manager for membership (New Maintainer) applications. He subsequently worked as a member of the Front Desk which coordinates the New Maintainer process. He also became involved in identifying inactive maintainers whose packages should be reassigned; created overviews of bugs in Debian; and coordinated keysigning to improve Debian's web of trust.[1]

In March 2003 he was elected as the Debian Project Leader, and a year later he was reelected to that position. He was succeeded by Branden Robinson in April 2005.

He continues to work on quality management in Debian, and has also been working on the ARM and MIPS ports.

Michlmayr obtained a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Cambridge in 2007, after working on quality management and release management in free software.
