-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- About 10 mins ago I posted a message to the debian-user list in a discussion of this package xfstt. The reason being that the package needs some work and I also have noticed it on the list of "Packages needing a new maintainer" That is why I am writting you now (and cc:ing debian-devel because I would like to get some more opinions on this) I fount xfstt a while back anbd love it...I think what it does is great (even if it is limited by the moronic copyrights on most fonts :( ) I am interested in volunteering some of my time and giving back to the Linux (and more specifically now debian) community, and am wondering if possibly you might think xfstt would make a good package to start with since I have never workerd on a package before. Yes I have read all of the documentation, the policy manual and all of that on the web page...and looked over a few times the packageing manual (need to play with it some more :) ) I am a little afraid of this...im unsure of my abilities I have fooled around with C for about 4 or 5 years and done some C++...playe dwith shell scripts and perl I admit I am unsure of what this will involve and the amount of work it requires... but one of the main reasons I use linu xin the first place is I want to learn...so I supose thats not entirely bad so im wondering what you (and others on debian-devel) think does this package seem like a bit much for a first package? if not...what do I do next (yes I read all of the info on how to get started but...that confused me just a bit... course thats probbaly just me :) ) - -Steve
