+there was some requests to get direct communications for mentoring, hence the
+chat channel.
+
+the idea is that all frequent questions are being put on the FAQ and all
+things unclear on the policies (which are alot of them).
+
+if you want to become a packager, and you are assigned a mentor, often your
+mentor will ask you to send emails to him/her.
+
+mentors and people helping out with mentoring are asked to go on that chat
+channel. i'm on it, and it's quite busy there.
+
+the thing is that packagers need to read up on policies cause it's important
+to follow those.
+
+even if you don't have a mentor yet, you can still make .spec files, have
+someone comment on those and possibly others will commit and submit them for
+you (your mentors' job), until you become a packager
+
+good luck
