I'm working on ebuilds for a major update, which are mostly done, except for a couple of niggling problems. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=178807 http://www.synce.org/moin/IainBuchanan jsin is a bit busy (and not at 6 months yet) so he can't mentor me, although he still offers help as time permits. I would therefore like to see if anyone wants to volunteer their mentoring prowess to get me to developer status :) I've done the quiz (a couple of small holes), and I've read the developer handbook and various other bits of doco around the web. I'm active in gentoo-user, and recently I've been silently watching gentoo-dev gentoo-project and gentoo-dev-announce. Oh, and I've been using for about ... 4 or 5 years. I'm also usually on Freenode as iaindb. Feel free to ask me any questions. many thanks, -- Iain Buchanan "If you don't stand for anything, you don't stand for anything.
