It's not about skill, it's about experience, any packager who's going
to gain commit/submit privileges to the official repos needs to be
clued in on how that system works, what packaging rules to follow,
what's to avoid... etc; some how like the mailing lists etiquette
users, who were posting to mailing lists for the very first time,
needed to learn. The difference here is submitting a package in the
repos means many users may use it, so stricter rules apply here.
And the apprenticeship won't take a year, probably about 1 month (2 at
the very most), depending on each mentors' time. Collaborating means
new comers should be taught on how that they collaborating in should
work :)
FWIW, most of the packagers who maintained packages in Mandriva went
through the same teaching/apprenticeship process.
“Reminds me of Star Wars, 'Apprentice' does” :)
