I'll respond to this part.

I was thinking today that it might be interesting if we setup a parallel
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResponsibilities where we listed
triager areas of expertise.  Ideally what triagers know should be
documented in the wiki but this would help in cases where it isn't.
Additionally, with this people could show what they know.

I'm happy that they forwarded this bug, but opening an affects for X
would have been best at a minimum.  Ideally doing some X triage would
have been great.

I'm not sure I agree with set this bug to wishlist and it seems like
more could have been done.  For example, adding a package version and
some more research into it.

The activity log in this bug report shows what they have done here and
it looks good to me.

This also looks good to me and they are subscribed to the upstream bug
report which is great.

This is fairly easy to check in the source package of hal.  However, the
work he has done looks good.

I would approve his application to the team.
