So, in my efforts to be useful.....
I would like to help hunt out and squash some of the bugs currently
listed on bugs.debian.org. However, it would seem that a little caution
is in order. How should I approach submitting the fixes I perform? Should
I simply do them as a patch sent to the maintainer or can I repackage them
and dupload 'em? Also, can I just start nailing bugs I think I can
chase out or is there a more formal method of declaring war on a given
bug? With people talking about release, I figure more and more of us
should be approaching the huge number of outstanding "issues" listed.
Now, the other thing I could be doing is adopting some packages.
What do people think? Time better spent making what we have run better
or time spent becoming a full maintainer of something?
