Hi!
Sorry that there was no response earlier. As you might have noticed
there's not much going on on the mailing list right now.

Well, that's not really how it works. sponsoring anyone for NM means
being sure she/he can upload any package without any review or
suggestions. If you start your work will be uploaded by DDs. That would
be you preparing a package and sending a mail to the list and people
with upload rights pick them up.
If everything goes well you can get the DM status where you can
upload some specific set of packages you care about on your own. If you
want to help I'll try to work through asdf and see what I can do
(although its one of the packages that still freighten me).

The pkg-common-lisp team keeps most of its works in git, the tree
for asdf is at [0]. If you want to work on it in Debian you'll need and
alioth[1] account and request to join the pkg-common-lisp team. After
that you'll be able to push into these git trees as well.

Christoph
