[gentoo-dev] Exim and Sendmail need a maintainer
The net-mail team is looking for maintainers for | mail-mta/sendmail | mail-mta/exim. If you are a dev, just start maintaining them. For users wanting to help, send a mail to net-m...@g.o Beside these two MTAs there is a number of packages in the net-mail herd that could benefit from a active maintainer too. If you want to help us or take over a package from the net-mail herd, don't hesitate to contact us. Thanks

Though I'm really curious to see what these questions are going to be for the past year of council members. Since I believe there's only 3 council members remaining from the original election and 2 of those council members were members of the previous council as well. The only take away we have is that being a council member burns you out. -- Doug Goldstein
[gentoo-dev] 2009 Council Elections
Hello everyone, I wanted to take this time to encourage everyone who can vote in this year's council elections. This is your chance to affect the technical development for Gentoo for the coming year and I encourage you to take it. Voting is easy, just login to your account on dev.gentoo.org and perform the following steps: Quick voting helper: $ votify --new council200906 [1] $ $(editor) .ballot-council200906 [2] $ votify --verify council200906 [3] $ votify --submit council200906 [4] While I'm not running this year. I encourage people to consider gentoofan23 (tanderson on IRC). He's done an outstanding job helping the current council members and without him much of the council's progress would have stalled. -- Doug Goldstein

Joseph Booker j...@neoturbine.net posted 20090624102731.67740...@fenrir, excerpted below, on Wed, 24 Jun 2009 10:27:31 -0500: btw, gentoo-portage-dev really isn't the place to discuss euse bugs, gentoo-dev, gentoo-user, the forums, or bugs.gentoo.org would be more appropriate. (gentoo-portage-dev is more about the internals of portage) FWIW, gentoo-dev wouldn't be either. But as here, pretty much all lists (and forums and IRC and...) should be at least polite enough to refer first time posters to the correct locations, and often to answer the question too. =:^) But Gentoo uses bugs for all sorts of stuff, including administrative stuff like tracking new and retiring devs, and other not ordinarily something you'd call a bug bugs, so that's a reasonable place (even if they do get marked invalid or notabug at times), and the various user forums/lists/IRC-channels work well if you want a second user opinion, or just some peer help, before bothering a dev. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
