I’ll create a gpg key when/if I need, to sign the packages, if arch Linux
votes for me.

That’s true, and I guess I already have your -1 on the votes. Great meeting
you :)

Besides not following rules, I help to maintain with patches upstream as a
maintainer, co-maintainer or just a random person sending patches fixing
bugs the following software set:

- kde plasma
- plasma firewall
- dolphin
- ark
- kde system settings
- Konsole
- qgroundcontrol
- konversation
- kio
- kde partition manager
- subsurface
- kde frameworks
- codevis
- kconfigxt

But in the end it’s the maintainers role to see if someone from upstream
would be useful for arch as a packager, or if he just wants to waste more
time of a non-paid position for no glory just for the sake of helping a
distro he uses daily.

Best.
