We don't really have individual mentoring in Debian; instead people with questions ask them on this list or on the IRC channel and people who know the answers reply as best they are able. This way the answers benefit everyone, not just the people asking the the questions. This scales better than individual mentoring but may seem impersonal to newcomers unfortunately. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
