drac is a generally helpful guy who hangs around in IRC and has also a big bug history. His contributions are widespread, he is interest in helping with (qoute): - cairo-clock. bmpx (i'm part of bmpx developers team), qc-usb-messenger, xfce (talked to dostrow, made my own svn ebuilds, ready to improve / push xfce 4.4 up in portage) - cairo, gtk-engines.. - modular xorg from ~x86 to x86 I put some people he has worked with on the CC-list.
I've already talked with drac and he is going to start out as an AT for the x86 team. He has already eben refered to Halcy0n for that. After he has spent a while as an AT I'll bring him on board for xfce work. Thanks.
I am mentoring drac, I have worked with him on a few ebuilds, he is doing the quizzes now. Dostrow will give him some additional inctruction on xfce :)
Good day, let me tell something about myself.. I'm almost 25 years old. I live in South of Finland, city called Uusikaupunki which is quite small. I've used computers since 1990, started out with C64 and made some new levels to game called Boulder Dash if anyone can remember. After that, I've got an 386, which I've used with PCDOS for long time. Since then, i've used OS/2 and I was part of Team OS/2 in Finland, volunteering to install and help users of it. Sometime near year 1995 I've found Linux Debian, I used it up to 2000. During this period, I was network admin in company called Segerstrom & Svensson Oy Ab in my homecity, this company is no more. Then I got a break from Computers; this means ~3 years, I did my obligated military assigment here in Finland and spend some time with friends and a girlfriend. I have a steady job, but it's not computer related unfortunately -- jobs are hard to find in my city and I'm not willing to move. Yet. Anyway, since I got back into computers first thing I did is get an machine (which I'm still using) -- Athlon 2200+ and installed Debian on it, used it for about year until I found out my /usr/local contains more packages than I've got from actual APT. I felt urge to move on, and to install packages withing somekind of management. So.. I found Gentoo, and Portage. Now again, after my overlay is getting filled with packages I'm using I 'm feeling urge to share them with others. So I got involved in x86 arch team, my status there is currently "active" but recently I've spend time learning to write more correct ebuilds and learn more about Gentoo policies. Project Sunrise have been a great help with this. I don't do many languages or even C; but I know my way around them and I do some bash. I'm active Xfce4 user, and if help is needed in that herd I'm willing to do so. I'm actively part of following development of some media programs, like bmpx too (with upstream). I know my way around X too, I've used development versions of it before I found about Portage and I tend to help other users with it (in IRC). Actually. I'm not sure what I should write about myself. I just felt this urge to tell something. And I like to highlight that this isn't ment to be like.. "I want to become developer, right now". I have time, I'm not going anywhere. I keep learning more and more each day I use Gentoo. All of my machines have Gentoo, x86 or ~x86 installed. Gentoo actually takes 75% of my freetime. That was long.. I drink some beer, still smoking cigarettes which is habit I will get rid when I have enough motivation (cancer? heh!).
I've talked with kingtaco and setupped a review/meeting in 8. August, 12:00-15:00 GMT-6 - drac
Samuli, would you mind if I was present today? Mike (KingTaco) is currently training me to become a recruiter and I'd be thrilled if I could sit in and watch during your review talk?

Hope I'm not too late, or too late or early for this, timezones..
between christel, phreak, and myself(the first 2 in training) we've rejected the first attemt at the quiz due to multiple incorrect answers. We've stated the incorrect questions and drac has 2 weeks from today to get stuff cleaned up. When we receive the revised quiz, we'll schedule a time to review again.

drac contacted me on IRC wanting to continue the process so reopening. KingTaco stepped down from recruiting so assigning to myself.

KingTaco > stepped down from recruiting so assigning to myself. > We reviewed the quizes and they were quite ok. Bash skills are not perfect so I recommend reading man bash a couple of times but I don't think it will cause anything major. genstef agreed to look after drac so I will be setting him up after I get his ssh2 and gpg public keys.

I'm going to give Samuli the 2 weeks delay we give every developer before we notify infra about the retirement.
sorry for the noise, let's not do this yet?
Sure. I'm glad to see you took the two weeks to think it through.
He is inactive for a long time
- bugs, packages, projects cleaned
Please proceed with retirement
