In fact, I'm currently trying to port "openvip", a video application to fink, and already packaged successfully a "Boost-Jam" on
my own, before discovering that this package is in the "Help Needed" list.
Judging from
<http://fink.sourceforge.net/pdb/package.php/boost-jam>
boost-jam already has a maintainer: Mark Treiber
So, in this case you should first talk to him about updating his package. If he doesn't want to maintain it anymore, then maybe you could take over the maintainership. This package is in the "Help Needed" list, since it is not yet moved to the stable tree.
who should I send my info file to be approved, or how should I proceed to become a maintainer ? (hope I did not miss some faq :) )
If you want to package something not yet in fink you should use the package submission tracker linked from the fink home page. Remember to run
fink validate package.info
and
fink validate package.deb
before submitting your package to the package submission tracker.
