Pawel is currently working in the Chromium project. He would like to become the maintainer of Chromium (and any related packages) in Gentoo. He has already submitted a preliminary version of an ebuild (bug #278975) for it. Since he is working in the upstream team, I think him being a Gentoo developer would be great for Chromium support in Gentoo. I'll be mentoring him throughout the application process, and we should have the ebuild quiz ready in about a week.
Do you plan on maintaining more than chromium? For a single pkg proxy maintaining makes more sense.
I'd going to be more involved than only packaging Chromium, here are few things I'm also interested in doing: - helping making packages stable - maintaining these packages: bug #105816 (logcheck) bug #178716 (peazip) bug #194137 (gimp-lqr-plugin) - admin tools, like cleaning /etc/portage etc. If you want, we can wait with the recruitment process to see for both me and you what's the best option. I should have the ebuild for Chromium ready soon (days), and we can try proxy maintainership. Please be aware that Chromium makes releases very frequently - even once a week (for the dev channel). They still go through QA, though less strict than for stable and beta releases.
I sent the ebuild quiz to recruiters for review.
Pawel, I will be your recruiter. Please send your quizzes to recruiters@gentoo.org when approved by your mentor. Always add a comment to this bug when you send something to that address. When the quizzes are sent please contact me by IRC or email to schedule the first review session.
Ebuild quiz review done, waiting for end quiz.
I sent the end quiz to recruiters for review.
Sent the end quiz, working on the final task.
We're in the final stages of the reviews now. Just for the record: Most of the delays in Pawel's recruitment were caused by me, not by him.
What we did: - LDAP - gentoo-core - bugzilla - cvs/svn/git groups on cvs.gentoo.org - IRC-cloak - announcement - sent you your LDAP/mail password via encrypted mail What you need to do: - subscribe to mailing lists with the @gentoo.org address - request forum status bump in #gentoo-forums or by mail to forum-mods@gentoo.org (if you have a forums count) - add yourself to mail aliases (like java@gentoo.org) see /var/mail/alias on dev.gentoo.org - ask team leads to add yourself to herds.xml for the herds you want to join or do it yourself if you have the permission to do so - set lat and lon attributes in LDAP if you want others to know where exactly you are located - set gentooIM if you want people to be able to contact you via other means than email - if you want a blog on blogs.gentoo.org, contact planet@gentoo.org For the mentor: - You are also responsible for the commits of your recruit during the first month so you should watch the commits of your recruit via gentoo-commits mailing list.
Okay, all done. If you need something or have questions, just ask us or reopen this bug.
