Hi I have been wanting to do this for a long time - which
is why I've been lurking in the lists for the last couple of months or so. When I went to the New Maintainer's corner I noticed that I must have a package that I've built and I should know someone who's already part of the Debian project, to sponsor me. Now, I don't know anyone who is a part of the project. I have, though, been a diehard Debian user ever since the early days of slink, and I've maintained an internal mirror at my previous organization to help people apt-get into Debian. I've have had that warm fuzzy feeling about Debian and have always wanted to help. Some points... 1) I'm an engineer working with one of the leading Communications corporations. 2) Have built and adminstered my own lab in college as well as in my previous organization, with Slackware, and then with Debian. 3) Have written drivers for a variety of peripherals, some in ARM assembly and some in C. 4) Have worked on cryptographic routines for the best known commercial directory service. 5) Have done some work on fine-grained access delegation on distributed systems. Given these, if someone can tell me if there's anything I can do, Documentation/testing included, I'll feel really nice. Sorry if I have taken up too much of your time. rgds, ADG 6) Know the internals of EPOC OS. While doing these, I have always stuck to Debian --- Raphael Hertzog <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Le Sat, May 04, 2002 at 04:50:16PM +0200, RIBNITZ > Robert écrivait: > > You can join Debian at > > > > http://nm.debian.org/newnm.php > > > > Kind regards > > This is not a good response.
