My SSH public key

I am resurrecting a input driver for Gunze touchpads (such as found in the Panasonic Toughbook CF-27) which I would like to committ and maintain.

I also maintain it on the OpenBSD repository.  xf86-input-gunze is the name.

Additionally I work on the AMD Geode driver, xf86-driver-geode, which I ported to OpenBSD and for which I work on security enhancements (restricting MSR access from userland).

I am an X.Org member since some time and if a reference is needed, please talk to Matthieu Herrb, who knows me personally.  I am an OpenBSD developer since 2004.

I have attached my public key.

Thanks,
Marc Balmer

I forgot to mention that I would like 'mbalmer' as the account name, which is also my account name with OpenBSD.
Comment 2 Matthieu Herrb 2008-08-24 03:09:35 UTC 
I'm sponsoring Marc to have a new account. 
his work on supporting the geode driver and the gunze touchscreen driver have confirmed his good knowledge of X. 
Moreover, having worked with him in the OpenBSD project for some years now, I can confirm that he also has experience on cooperative work and social behaviour :)

Hi Marc, we also need a gpg key before we can add you an account. Could you please attach one to this bug then remove the NEEDINFO keyword.

So when can I expect a reply?  What kind of shit show is this?  Waiting for months or what?
Comment 8 Marc Balmer 2009-01-19 03:04:35 UTC 
It would be nice if someone could take of this request.  I am now waiting for a record breaking period of time, I think...
Comment 9 Benjamin Close 2009-05-12 19:46:46 UTC 
Howdy, record breaking here is about 4 years - no where close.
Anyway account created, you should get a separate email with login details. For your first commits if you could run patches past the relevant mailing lists (ie xorg-devel@freedesktop.org for x related commits) it would be great.

Let me know if you need anything else setup.
