Add yourself to herds.xml and welcome aboard!
You may be interested in joining sci-physics subproject as well
(edit the same file).

I usually maintain sci-physics/root, but I don't always have time
to follow new version bumps, so help is welcome.

Right now I'm working on 5.34.26, 6.02.05 and (possibly) 6.03.02
version bumps. So in order to avoid double effort wait for them in
tree (or at least in science overlay) before fixing various
issues :)

What a small world we are in... Actually I'm (slowly) working on my
Ph.D. using Fermilab's data: a SELEX experiment, quite an old one
(data taken 1996-97), but it still has at interesting stuff to dig
in :) Though I never was at Fermilab myself.

Best regards,
