+Hi Joseph,

+IRC has people in it all the time. Mageia has contributors from all 
+around the world, although there is more activity when it's the day in 
+Europe.
+We have some people in Asia that can potentially mentor you.
+
+Otherwise, please hang around #mageia-mentoring and ping me there.
+
+I'm quite busy these days, and not really in your time zone. But if you 
+come on IRC #mageia-mentoring during your afternoon/evening, we can 
+start chatting a bit, and maybe review a couple of packages before 
+finding you an official mentor, ok? (Note that this official mentor can 
+be me from mid-November, when I have a bit more time)
+
+If other potential apprentices read that, please follow the same idea: 
+come to the #mageia-mentoring channel and say hi to me or other random 
+people in order to get you started.
+There is no point just waiting.
+
+Cheers,
+-- 
+Malo
