Hi all,


I've been talking with jsin about becoming a dev, specifically to help
with SynCE.  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,
