+= Guest Access to porter machines =
+
+People who are not DDs or DMs but are working on software in Debian are
+able to obtain access to porter machines for short term (1 -2 months) in
+order to resolve port issues and the like. The procedure for this is that
+the guest applicant should supply several details (listed below) to a DD,
+and the DD will sign this information and send to the DSA mailing list.
+
+This signing and resending is a sponsorship by the DD that the guest
+account should be granted access to Debian resources, and should be
+regarded as such.
