Hello! I've been on the mailinglist for a while, but haven't felt I could participate since I don't have any packaging experience, but I would like to give it a shot if someone could mentor me. Some info about myself: I've been using Linux since around 1997, Slackware the first few years, and later Red Hat, Debian, Mandriva, Puppy et al.. Currently using Mageia, Debian and Mandriva at home, and Ubuntu at work (plus working with UNIX servers, not as a sysadmin though), mostly running Gnome and sometimes Xfce. I've studied computer science and work as a Java Developer, and also have done some C programming in school and for fun, as well as some C# etc. I also have some computers which could be used for testing e.g. Asus EeeBox (Atom D525), FujitsuSiemens Laptop (Core2Duo T5400) and homebuilt computer (Core2Duo E7200) as well as VirtualBox of course. Let me know how I can help. I don't have any major preferences on packages, so if there are packages from the list sent today I could work on some of the unassigned once when I get up to speed. Regards, David Sjölin AKA Zarniwoop
