U-Andreas Tille, umholi wephrojekthi ye-Debian, ushicilele umbiko wakhe wanyanga zonke, echaza ukuthi ukhethe ukungahlanganyeli okhethweni lomholi wephrojekthi okwesithathu ukuze akhuthaze abanye abahlanganyeli ukuba bazibeke phambili. Ngenxa yalokho, umuntu oyedwa kuphela ongenele ukhetho lomholi kulo nyaka: uSruthi Chandran, ohlanganyele waseNdiya. Ukuvota kuqale izolo futhi kuzoqhubeka kuze kube ngu-Ephreli 17, kodwa umphumela usuvele uyisiphetho esiqinisekisiwe; akunakwenzeka ukuthi iningi labahlanganyeli lizovota "akukho nakunye kwalokhu okungenhla."
UShruti wajoyina iphrojekthi ngo-2016 futhi unikele kumaphakheji angu-194, okuhlanganisa imitapo yolwazi yeRuby, iNode.js, neGo, kanye namaphakheji efonti. Uphinde wasebenza njengomhleli wemihlangano yeDebConf India kanye neDebConf, futhi uyilungu lethimba le-Outreach, elithuthukisa izinhlelo zokufundisa abasanda kufika kanye nokubandakanya abesifazane kanye nabantu abancane kule phrojekthi.
Izinhlelo zikaShruti njengomholi zifaka phakathi ukusekela ukwehlukahluka emphakathini, ukudlulisela eminye yemisebenzi yomholi kubasizi oyedwa noma ababili ukuze kwandiswe ukusebenza kahle, ukudala inkambo ye-Debian ehlelekile yabafundi, ukuhlela ukufakwa kwe-Debian kuma-laptop, ukusebenza ngendlela eyamukelayo yokuxhumana komphakathi, nokukhuthaza abanikeli ukuthi baphakamise imibono nezinqubo ezintsha zokuthuthukisa i-Debian. Lezi zinhlelo zifaka phakathi nokudala inqubo elula yokwenza izinqumo kune-General Resolution (GR) yokwamukela izinkinga ezincane zansuku zonke lapho ivoti elijwayelekile lingadingeki khona.
Engxenyeni yesibili yombiko, u-Andreas Tille wabelane ngombono wakhe mayelana nokusetshenziswa kwemithetho edinga ukuhlanganiswa kwama-API okuqinisekisa ubudala ezinhlelweni zokusebenza, njengoba kwamukelwe kwezinye izifundazwe zase-US naseBrazil. Uqaphele ukuthi ukusebenza kwale mithetho kuphrojekthi engenzi nzuzo eyakhiwe yizisebenzi zokuzithandela futhi yasatshalaliswa mahhala akukacaci. Ukuqaliswa kwezinyathelo zokuqinisekisa ukuthi ukusatshalaliswa kuyahambisana nale mithetho okwamanje kuxoxwa ngabathuthukisi futhi kubuyekezwa ngokomthetho yi-SPI (Software in the Public Interest).
Kucatshangwa ukuthi izibopho zokuthobela imithetho zithinta kakhulu abasabalalisi nezinkampani zezentengiselwano ezidala imikhiqizo esekelwe ku-Debian. Iphrojekthi ye-Debian ikulungele ukuhlanganisa izici ezidingekayo ukuze ihambisane nale mithetho ekusakazweni okususelwe kokunye, kodwa lokhu kusebenza kuzoba okukhethwayo futhi ngeke kuphoqelelwe kubasebenzisi emazweni angenayo imithetho enjalo.
Ukwengeza i-API yezinhlelo zokusebenza zokubuza iminyaka yomsebenzisi nakho kuxoxwa ngabathuthukisi be-Ubuntu, i-Fedora, i-Linux Mint, kanye nokusatshalaliswa kwe-NixOS. Izinqumo ezithile azikathathwa okwamanje, kodwa kungenzeka ukuthi kusetshenziswe i-API edingekayo iyacatshangelwa. Ushintsho seluvele lwamukelwe ku-systemd, okungeza inkambu ye-birthDate ku-userdb nosuku lokuzalwa lomsebenzisi, kanye nenketho ethi "--birth-date" ku-utility ye-homectl yokusetha ubudala. Inkambu eyengeziwe ingasetshenziswa ku-portal ye-xdg-desktop-portal ethuthukiswayo yalokhu kusatshalaliswa kanye nensizakalo ye-AccountsService ukuhlinzeka izinhlelo zokusebenza ngolwazi mayelana nesigaba sobudala somsebenzisi nge-interface ye-D-Bus ethi "org.freedesktop.AgeVerification1" noma "org.freedesktop.ParentalControls."
