-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi guys, I'd like to contribute and got a little Problem: http://rpmfusion.org/Contributors states: "... However if you are a newcomer (i.e. you're not a Fedora sponsored packager) you must first get sponsored, which means find someone to guide you while you learn the procedures." Well, I'm not a "Fedora sponsored packager" (and don't intend to become one - unless that's unavoidable), so: Where do i find a RPMFusion sponsor? Just some info about myself: - - My name is Fritz Elfert. I'm from Germany, living in Ludwigsburg (southern, near Stuttgart). I'm 53, married, 3 kids (well not *kids* anymore, the youngest is 21 now ;) My tech skills: - - Developer (mainly C/C++) since the early days (started writing Unix drivers on a PDP 11/34) - - I have used RH since v5. - - I was a kernel developer in the old kernel 2.0 times (the ISDN subsystem is my design - just grep for "Elfert" in the kernel sources to verify that) - - As a contractor for IBM, was part of the team that ported Linux to S/390. - - Ported a complete RH6 to S/390 on my own, resulting in one of the first S/390 distros at that time. - - In my daytime job, I'm doing development and packaging (RPM/dpkg/other formats) of several commercial products, on Fedora: since FC5. - - Contributed to numerous OSS projects over the years. (KDE, XFree, ghostscript, mars-nwe, apache, openct/opensc to name a few) So: Is there anybody on this list willing to act as my "Sponsor"? Oh, BTW: The reason for me trying to join RPMFusion: I'd like to provide a rebuild of Fedora's blender package which is seriously crippled in the regular repository (most of the codecs for rendering to various video formats are missing there).
