Dear fellow developers,

As per Debian Constitution =A78, I hereby appoint the following developers
as members of the Debian Archive Operations Team (in short Archive team):

 * Thorsten Alteholz (alteholz)
 * Ansgar Burchardt  (ansgar)
 * Joerg Jaspert     (joerg)
 * Luke W. Faraone   (lfaraone)

This new team is spun off from the former FTP Master team. With its
creation, the previous FTP Master delegation is revoked. The delegation
is not time-limited and will remain in effect until further changes by
the present or a future Project Leader.


Task Description
----------------

The Debian Archive Operations Team oversees and maintains the well-being
of Debian's official package repositories. Team members are responsible
for tasks including:

 * Operating the archive and maintaining its infrastructure (e.g. tools
   for processing uploads, moving packages across suites).

 * Supporting other DPL Delegates in the execution of their delegated
   tasks.

 * Managing packagages handled byhand currently.

 * Removing packages when requested or required, whether as part of
   routine maintenance or in exceptional circumstances.

 * Maintaining package state and archive structure via priority and
   section override files.

 * Maintaining the software used to run the archive, namely the Debian
   Archive Kit (dak).

 * Documenting the team's key processes, especially those related to
   releases, to support transparency and contributor involvement.


Further information
-------------------

More details about the Debian Archive Operations Team can be found on
the Debian Wiki[1].

I would like to explicitly thank the former FTP Master team for their
longstanding work.
