That is true. However, what you may be interested in, Brett, is more of a mentor, where an experienced Debian person helps you with stuff you're interested in relating to Debian. PR is handled through [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is Martin Schulze behind the scenes. Documentation is generally coordinated through the debian-doc mailing list. I'd recommend subscribing and posting a message there asking if there's anyone who'd be willing to help you get started. Be prepared to read a lot of random stuff, or end up doing so fairly basic work to begin with. If there's anyone here on d-mentors who'd be interested in giving Brett a bit of a hand, please speak up here or mail Brett directly. - Matt
