Greetings,
My apologies for the duplicate email.
My name is Liz and I am interested in adopting midentd if it is still
available. Since I am new to the maintainer process I suspect I will
need a mentor/sponsor. I have been working with Linux for eight years
or so. I am currently a Sr Linux admin for a company in Seattle ( Large
web hosting company) I formally worked with the Slashdot team as their
Sr Network Engineer/ Linux admins. I have worked at several large
companies and have always tried to make a case for Debian ( Currently I
am attempting to move boxes from White box to Debian)
I would like to help with Debian and learn more about the dynamics that
contribute to its success as a stable and secure distribution.
You should start by talking to the maintainer and submitting an ITA to
the WNPP[1].
Then you can start working on the package, get it into shape, fix bugs, etc.
Once you have a new version ready you can post a RFS to this list. "The
debian-mentors FAQ"[2] explains how to do this.
Before even attempting to make a package please read some
documentation[3]. Specially the "Debian Policy Manual".
Thanks for offering to help!
K.
