On the subject of introductions...

I've been on this list for some time now (seeing very little traffic, of
course). I'm a Debian maintainer (ed(at)debian(dot)org), and am intersted in SPI
membership. One quick question, though: are Debian maintainers entitled to
SPI membership automatically (ie., ex oficio)? If not, is there any
membership procedure established thus far, or is that still being
determined?

That was the plan back in the old days. IIRC it was agreed that this
can't be done legally, thus whoever wants to be a member needs to apply
on his own, implicit membership is not provided. (afair)
