Uhm there is, no? * join committers by following the instructions * introduce yourself * declare yourself emeritus/temporarily (at least) retired Otherwise * join the dicussion * introduce yourself as the folk who wrote the Xxxx components * ask to participate If you can't do the first over the course of 2 mos, 3 mos, 6 mos or the year it takes to graduate, follow the second course?
