New delegation for Debian's data protection team
Debian Project Leader (DPL) Andreas Tille has announceda new delegation for Debian's data protection team:
Following the end of the previous delegation, Debian was leftwithout an active Data Protection team. This situation hasunderstandably drawn external attention and highlighted the importanceof having a clearly identified point of contact for data protectionmatters within the project.
I am therefore very pleased to announce that new volunteers havestepped forward, allowing us to re-establish the Debian DataProtection team with a fresh delegation.
Tille had put out a call forvolunteers in January after all previous members of the team hadstepped down. He has appointed Aigars Mahinovs, Andrew M.A. Cater,Bart Martens, Emmanuel Arias, Gunnar Wolf, Kiran S Kunjumon, and SalvoTomaselli as the new members of the team. The team provides a centralcoordination and advisory function around Debian's data handling,retention, dealing with deletion requests, and more.
