Description Tom Wijsman (TomWij) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-11-07 02:34:15 UTC
Alex Xu (axu) has expressed his interest on gaining full developer status at Gentoo. He uses Gentoo on his desktop, laptop and VPS. He has also been helping users in #gentoo for a long time.

He has recently became interested in ebuilds, and package maintenance as well; it is in his best interest to see Gentoo become better.

We have recently started this process last month, and I will be his mentor.

The first quiz will be mailed to you soon.

it may be confused with axs :)
Comment 2 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2013-11-07 12:04:05 UTC
/me grumbles

alexxu isn't much better.
Comment 3 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2013-11-07 17:05:38 UTC
alex?

I am ambivalent about changing my IRC nick; axu is registered on Freenode but is expired so can be dropped.
Comment 4 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-11-29 08:37:07 UTC
Are both quizzes ready here?
Comment 5 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2013-11-29 14:37:54 UTC
Bleh. end-quiz is *almost* done. I've been waiting for a chance to discuss a few questions with TomWij.

AFAIK, though, the review is primarily on the contents of the first quiz, no?

No, we will discuss both quizzes. The name "end-quiz" is misleading here.
Comment 7 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2013-11-30 01:17:19 UTC
end-quiz mailed to recruiters@
Comment 8 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2013-12-05 01:25:55 UTC
Ping. Did it get lost in the mail or something?

I only got the ebuild.quiz.
Comment 10 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2013-12-06 00:52:19 UTC
Sent again from Gmail and my host both inline and attached.

Hey Alex, I'll be your recruiter. I've seen your quizzes sent to recruiters@g.o, and sent you an e-mail about scheduling a quiz review session on irc.

Please don't hesitate to ping me (phajdan-jr) on irc or via mail if the recruitment process seems to be stuck at any time.
Comment 12 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-05-08 19:24:25 UTC
As discussed, closing this and we will review it in the future
Comment 13 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2016-07-22 17:58:23 UTC
Could someone perchance remind me how exactly this happened, preferably via IRC or email? Two years is a surprisingly long time, and while I do have some inkling of what went on, I seem to be failing in finding the archives regarding this matter.

well, it seems that your previous mentor is gone, so you have to find another one to consult, I don't see movement here right now, so please keep bug closed till you are exactly ready again.
