<PRE>Hi Robert,

Great to hear and thank you for offering to help out.

As we are in the final stages of a release some of us are quite busy
concentrating on getting it out the door but when everything settles
down again in a couple weeks it will be the perfect time to help bring
on board new packagers.

I'd be happy to help you find your feet in Mageia, but I'm afraid I
won't be much use until after the final release is out!

Either way, looking forward to welcoming a new packager.

Cheers

Col

'Twas brillig, and Robert Wood at 21/05/12 10:47 did gyre and gimble:
&gt;<i> Following a discussion on the forum, I'd like to volunteer to do some
</I>&gt;<i> packaging.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I develop software [and hardware] for a living, *but* this is little
</I>&gt;<i> embedded programs that work on processors with a few k of RAM and up to
</I>&gt;<i> 256k of flash memory. The up-side to this is that I understand
</I>&gt;<i> programming and much of this is not totally alien to me; the down side
</I>&gt;<i> is there's a fair difference between run-to-complete programs written
</I>&gt;<i> for an ARM or AVR in C and huge program using endless libraries in C++!
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> So, if someone is willing to work with me and hand-hold me in learning
</I>&gt;<i> the process, it would be great to give something back to the community.
</I>&gt;<i> I am constantly learning new stuff in my job and certainly willing and
</I>&gt;<i> able to learn how to do this.
</I>
