thanks for listing me as mentor, but I barely did a thing, just minor quiz review.
but nonetheless, I think Matthew will be great addition to the team.

I have generated new keypairs and emailed my signed quiz to recruiters@g.o.

Just to note: matthew is known in the community as 'asymptotically' too, but wants to be 'matthew' for his official developer nick.

Re-sent the quiz to recruiters@g.o with answers to the questions that were recently added.

Hey, 

I will be your recruiter. Always add a comment to this bug when you send something to that address. Please contact me by IRC or email to schedule the first review session. If you think that recruiters aren't paying attention to this bug at any later point in time, it's your job to ping us on IRC if you don't want any delays.

In addition can you answer: Have you worked with any Gentoo-related projects before (other than proxy-maint), or do you have some specific project in mind you wish to join?

A little time with the security project, but I have not discussed joining it at all.
