Hi all,
I was recently approached by Intel engineers Miguel and Jair (Cc:ed on
this mail). They asked for my help in getting Debian Bookworm and
higher to support the Data Streaming Accelerator, and we have
exchanged a couple of messages about this. I'm reproducing next part
of our conversation.

I don't know where you got this mail address as a source for providing
the goods you need, but it's not correct -- Debian is a volunteer
