Hans has an awesome xemacs overlay at http://moving-innovations.com/svn/xemacs/ we'd love to integrate into portage. XEmacs in Gentoo seriously lacks human resources. Hans has been a prolific contributor to gentoo bugzilla xemacs bugs. We'd love to have Hans join the project, so for the above reasons, I'm starting Hans on the New Developer process. I will be his mentor. I've already sent him the URL to the Quiz and other developer documentation.
Just a quick note to mention that I've sent my ebuild quiz to the recruiters on August 5th.
My end quiz was approved by Matt with one correction on August 25th, and today I've sent it on the recruiters.
It has been more than a month since the bug was filed. Currently, Hans has sent his ebuild quiz and also his end quiz in. I reviewed both before he sent them.

Expect a recruiter to be assigned soon.
I'll pick this one up, however, as the quizzes went in before I became a recruiter it'd be great if you could forward them on to me directly; or re-send them to recruiters@ and I'll try to get this out of the way over the coming week. Thanks
Thanks Christel. Hans, could you resend those quizes and make a note here in the Bugzilla comments?
Resend the quizes directly to Christel this morning.
NB I'm not going to be online for a few days due to hardware failure.
I hate to bug our recruiters, but I hate to leave Hans in limbo too :-) Can I help in some way perhaps?
Send the quiz answers to phreak as per his request in IRC this morning.
phreak, what remains to get Hans a CVS account?
Will do the Q&A (as Hans said today, some when tomorrow).
Did Q&A session this morning, just sent updated quizes to recruiters@gentoo.org.
I don't think I've come across Q&A session in previous new developer processes. What's that exactly?
Basically I chatted with phreak on IRC about the answers on my quizes, with some background and extra questions and gotcha's that I had to work out. Whether or not it's part of the normal recruitment process I don't know.
