Sure, my recollection is that gregkh (Greg Kroah-Hartman) loves to work=20
with new kernel contributors, and he's a Gentoo dev among other things.=20
He's best reached by email, as he's not on IRC regularly.

Another option is Mike Frysinger (vapier), as he also contributes a fair=20
bit upstream. Let me know if either of those people work out for you,=20
and if they don't, I'm sure we can think of some more. Those are just=20
the names that came to the top of my mind.
