I can complete the entire checklist except I do not have an advocate. Last year I checked the box anyways and was dropped from the list after 6 weeks or whatever it is.
I would really like to be a contributing member of Debian, but it is the chicken and egg thing. I can't help until I become a member, and until I become a member I'm not that enthusiastic. I went to DebConf2 in Toronto and had my key signed last summer. I have a package which I rescued from oblivion and modernized and ported, and I have been using Debian since 1992! Now I am finally out of school, have the time and money to be a good developer, and it is nearly impossible to join a 100% volunteer effort? You shame me. Anyways, my silly XDrum package is here, just waiting for an advocate / mentor / sponsor. http://www.gyrodynamic.net/debian/xdrum/ So should I "check the box" even though I do not have an advocate? My key was signed by: Amaya Rodrigo Sastre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> LaMont Jones <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Alexander Pennace <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I'm into Debian/Linux and Debian/Hurd, but lack of membership severely dampens my enthusiasm. I have X86, Arm, and HPPA machines and think I could be a great benefit to Debian. Reply via private email to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
