Hi all,
I'm looking to become involved as a package maintainer at
rpmfusion/livna. I haven't previously submitted packages to Fedora so
I'll be looking for a sponsor - I know you guys are busy with the
migration to rpmfusion but I'm hopeful someone can spend some time with
a new contributor. Initially I'd like to submit a new package: the new
Broadcom drivers kernel module that does away with requiring ndiswrapper
for those chipsets unsupported by b43. I have used this driver on F9 and
it works beautifully so IMO it would be a great addition to
rpmfusion/livna.
Hi,
First of all welcome to the rpmfusion community / project!
Please let me know what should be my next steps (I've got a rpmfusion
bugzilla account) and I'd be really grateful if a sponsor was willing to
spend a little time with me on the finer points of RPM building. I'll
try to make myself available on this list and in the IRC rooms (cnolan).
One of the things you also want to do is create an account in the account
system:

As for looking for a sponsor, as your main interest at the moment seems to be
getting the bcm module packaged (which I think is great, many people will like
that), I think it would be best if Thorsten works with you to get that kmod
package in to shape, as he knows most about kmods.
Regards,
Hans
