Okay, I'll ante in. :)Maybe after lurking for a while to get a feel for the lay of the land I can chip in a little.

To add to what Darrick said, some of the work is also just about bouncing around ideas and nitty gritty details about how we want to change the system moving forward... the complexities of configuring certain packages and getting scripts wrapped around these to simplify and automate everyday tasks... things of that nature. You don't have to be a C programming guru or a makefile expert to contribute. Sometimes being able to download, test, troubleshoot, and accuratelydiagnose problems with recent changes (and regressions) can be invaluable.And if all you want to do is sit on the mailing list, and contribute anoccasional comment or insight, that's fine too. At least we'll know we're not working in a vacuum. Thanks, -Philip Darrick Hartman wrote:We have quite a few new people around here lately (which is great!). Ijust wanted to point out that we have a two mailing lists. The astlinux-users mailing list was originally the only mailing list. At some time, we added the astlinux-devel mailing list to allow us to separate the boring developer stuff from the general users. I know neither mailing list is particularly high traffic, but forarchival purposes, it may be easier to separate topics to some degree.Most of the discussions regarding the development environment, should probably take place on the astlinux-devel mailing list. Most of that discussion involves problems that do not affect the resultantdistributed files. That may lead to general users perceiving a problemthat doesn't exist.The astlinux-users mailing list is intended for user interaction on thebinary Astlinux releases.If you're interested in tracking the development progress, you may alsofind the svn commit mailing list. As long as I'm bringing this up, we wouldn't mind having a few additional contributors. Most of the development work involves bash scripts and makefiles.
