(On > git.debian.org I don't see much instruction...) You need to get an account on alioth.debian.org. Then request to join the pkg-multimedia project (it has a link somewhere in the project page), and we will add you. Also read wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia for some information on how we have been working. -- Saludos, Felipe Sateler _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
