Hi All,

My name is Viktar and I'm an experienced Java developer. I'm using Gentoo as my primary system for a past 5-6 years, so I do know a little bit about it. I even tried to become a Gentoo Dev, but due to lack of time haven't completed training course. That's it for introduction.

I feel really sorry for Gentoo Java project not having appropriate attention and I'm volunteering to help solving most important and critical issues as a proxy maintainer. Please let me know who I should coordinate with.

Thanks,
Viktar

I've mostly stayed out of this discussion, but it seems to be reaching
more on personal discussions than topical matters now so I suggest that
everyone takes a step back, a breath of fresh air and keep the topics to
matters that can actually benefit Gentoo.

William; We've all heard what you're saying ad nauseam, and although the
current thread is really within the pure boundries of allowed
discussions, several people have complained about spamming of the lists.

You're saying that nobody really knows you, have you considered spending
some time to reflect on how you present yourself on this mailing list
and other communication channels? Maybe taking another few minutes
writing an email can get your message across in a way that seems more
constructive? Pure volume and repetition of issues surely doesn't
benefit anyone, and quickly becomes boring.
