Welcome. There have been several so far, but, the more the better. It will take the load off any one individual. We all (well, most) have real lives that we also need to attend to. ;) For best the best documentation, enable the epydoc use flag and re-emerge portage. There are several bugs to start working on. Also there are some gleps that need to be attended to. See the email Sebastian has sent out with a number of open bugs. I will be laying out a plan for the sync operations change I am proposing to do. If we can come to an agreement on that, then there will also be that to implement. So for now, join, start delving into the code, see what you can do. Ask questions... We will need to establish some meetings after some newcomers have had a bit of time to see what needs doing. We can start making some decisions then. Thank you. -- Brian Dolbec <[email protected]>
