FYI.

Debian9 を Ian Murdock に捧げるという謝辞を入れるので、賛同する人は 　GPGサインしてね、という呼びかけです。

Begin forwarded message: -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi,

My apologies that this is rather short notice. We deferred discussion of the subject in 2015 to "nearer the release", and then promptly failed to add it to any checklists.

Debian 9 "stretch" will be dedicated to Ian Murdock. Whilst dedications in more specific areas of Debian development are generally preferred, the founder of the project is a common sense exception. As is traditional, the dedication will be expressed by a file on the mirrors and CD images.

We welcome every Debian developer, maintainer, translator, or contributor in any other field to join us in signing this dedication.

If you wish to do so, please:

* Download the dedication file: https://people.debian.org/~jmw/dedication-9.0.txt * Verify the sha1sum: fb37a995eebad8ced194709a9a2eb7a68ad8979c * Create a detached, ascii-armoured signature in a file with your name, underscore-separate. Use of proper capitalisation is appreciated. For example, mine is called Jonathan_Wiltshire: gpg -bao Your_Name dedication-9.0.txt * Mail the file as an attachment directly to me, jmw@debian.org with the subject line "Dedication signature". I will collate them.

Owing to the proximity of the release, the deadline for signatures is 2016-06-16 18:00 UTC (Friday). I am aware that this does not leave very much time and I'm sorry about that; I will make one further update to the signatures archive around the time of the first point release for anyone who cannot meet this schedule.

Thanks,

For the release team:
