[gentoo-dev] How to get more involved?

[Mateusz Mierzwinski]

Hi!

I just want to know how to get more involved into Gentoo development? 
I'm student, programmer with C/C++/PHP and SQL knowledge (IPC, Shared 
Memory, Fifo's and pipes programming, threads, mutexes, fork's and 
demonization).  I've started my own project (http://www.matheos.org) 
called "Apache:Ghost" currently under development of beta version. What 
should I do to make ebuilds and upload it to main portage mirror?

Please send me some info's,
Mateusz M.

Take a look at the Gentoo docs on writing[1] and contributing[2] ebuilds. If 
you've got any further questions, try the gentoo-dev-help mailing list or the 
#gentoo-dev-help irc channel. Please note that this list is intended to be 
used for discussion of Gentoo development, not ebuild development.

gentoo-devhelp (one dash, not two).  gentoo-dev-help will get you
'help' about how to use our mailing list software ;)

As an addition to those links, we on the Java Team and sub project
regularly refer to this document. Which at the end links to the handbook
above. Not really Java specific, so applies to pretty much anyone, any
area of Gentoo.

Sure, there is some Java specific stuff in there. Likely need to remove
that first, but is a pretty general doc.

You may want to mix in some of what's in there:

It's my usual answer to requests we get on the recruiters' list. I
thought that might help.
