What kind of background is needed to maintain packages ? Well, I would like to do more than just writing documentation about Gentoo and promote its usage. I'm aramis_qc on Gentoo-Qu=E9bec (gentoo-quebec.org). I sure am confident that I can be successful with the help of my friend d2_racing (Sylvain Alain) who now is a gentoo-dev.=20 Best regards, --=20 Guy Fontaine
