I believe that covers most of it. You should probably be prepared for anthraxx to go over your AUR packages with a fine-toothed comb looking for every conceivable mistake you could make though. :D Really, the main thrust of it is finding a TU to sponsor you, and making a good case as to what you want to accomplish as a TU and what your previous track record is in the Arch/FOSS community as a way to gauge what kind of maintainer you would be. In my experience lurking here, most people who can make a coherent argument for all those things tend to be accepted. Good luck! :) -- Eli Schwartz
