First off.  Welcome and than you for responding to help with portage.

With this many people, we should be able to make good progress without
overloading any one person.

General rule is to submit all patches to this list for review and
approval before committing.

Remember to do these always:
 1) run pyflakes on your changes to check for faults, misssing imports,
variables undefined,...

2) run the testsuite to check for breakage.  It is in the base directory
called runtests.sh.  Please try to test it with all minimum supported
python versions, but if you have pypy, and some others, then great.

3) any new code that could break things, make a test for it if at all
possible.


The general exception for patch submittal is for trivial changes such as
typo fixes, etc..

It will take a bit of time for everyone to acclimate themselves into our
new team.  So, I was thinking we give it 2 months, then hold an election
for lead in March.  Is that alright with everyone?

Thanks
