[Mageia-dev] mentors + apprentices

[andre999]

Hi everyone.
This is to present apprentices looking for mentors,
inviting mentors to step forward,
as well as other potential apprentices


Our apprentices waiting include :
(See 
http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=packages_mentoring#packager_apprentice_table 
)

dotmil (Josh King)
He has experience with .deb packaging (kernel maintainer, drivers) as 
well as contributing patches to various projects.
He is a sys admin in his day job.
He is very interested in learning the "Mageia way of doing things".
His primary interests are packaging system tools/utilities and web apps, 
but is eager to help wherever needed.  He has been reading our wiki 
pages on packaging and security.
He has a really positive attitude and I'm sure he will be a great asset.

barjac (Barry Jackson)
He has experience doing personal packaging, would like to package grub2 
and get-skype.
Anybody following the -dev list might have noticed his enthusiasm to 
package, and his willingness to accept constructive criticism, as he 
works on packages on his own.  A mentor would certainly facilitate his 
learning process.

. . . .
So anyone willing to mentor one of them, please let me know.
You can contact them directly (please post to this thread), or through me.
If you like, I can update the mentoring in progress table for you.

Anyone looking for a mentor, let me know (you can post to this thread), 
so I can put your name in the apprentice table -- or you can do it yourself.
