I am sure they would appreciate one more person to squash bugs, test fixes, update documentation or whatever. I don't know if you are familiar with the debian-perl mailing list [1], but it seems pretty active, so it would be a good place to start interacting with the Debian Perl community. Just don't forget Debian Women, though :) We are pleased to have you. Helen 1. http://lists.debian.org/debian-perl/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
