&gt; &gt; Hi all,<br>
&gt; &gt; My name is Kfir Lavi, I&#39;m 36 years old, father of a gorgeous child ;)<br>
&gt; &gt; and a Linux user for about 8 years (I don&#39;t count really ;-).<br>
&gt; &gt; I&#39;m a Linux BSP developer here in Israel.<br>
&gt; &gt; I started from LFS, and after few weeks I had a Pentium 100Mhz loaded with<br>
&gt; &gt; X...<br>
&gt; &gt; I&#39;m a Gentoo user for few years now, and I&#39;m interested in embedded,<br>
&gt; &gt; catalyst and stuff<br>
&gt; &gt; related to day to day desktop. At home we are working just on Gentoo, no<br>
&gt; &gt; other OS installed there.<br>
&gt; &gt; I&#39;m experienced in cluster environments to embedded environments. I have<br>
&gt; &gt; worked with Perl, Python and Ruby.<br>
&gt; &gt; I do prefer Bash for day to day usage. I also do C programming that relate<br>
&gt; &gt; to Kernel stuff.<br>
&gt; &gt; In the last few month i did a lot of work using Catalyst, crossdev and<br>
&gt; &gt; &quot;embedded&quot; in general. I&#39;m using<br>
&gt; &gt; Portage facilities for my own work internal use. As part of that, I did<br>
&gt; &gt; some work on public ebuilds.<br>
&gt; &gt; As work get more complicated, I find myself in need of packages that are<br>
&gt; &gt; not always<br>
&gt; &gt; maintained as I need them.<br>
&gt; &gt; As a start I would like to start maintaining dev-libs/ace, as we are using<br>
&gt; &gt; it in our systems a lot.<br>
&gt; &gt; I have emailed  Daniel Black, the current maintainer of ACE,  about<br>
&gt; &gt; changing ownership, but<br>
&gt; &gt; because I&#39;m not a gentoo dev, we can&#39;t do it.<br>
&gt; &gt; I&#39;m currently in a battle of shifting major company to Gentoo from vxworks<br>
&gt; &gt; and Windriver.<br>
&gt; &gt; Not easy, and because of that, I have been learning a lot of Gentoo<br>
&gt; &gt; internals. This really<br>
&gt; &gt; opened up my view about Portage and it&#39;s abilities.<br>
&gt; &gt; My aim for the future is bringing Catalyst and Portage to an OnDemand<br>
&gt; &gt; embedded (crossdev) state (Which is a lot to ask, but we&#39;ll take it step by<br>
&gt; &gt; step).<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I would be happy if someone will find the time to mentor me to become a<br>
&gt; &gt; Gentoo dev.<br>

</blockquote></div><br></div></div>Hi Markos,<br>I&#39;m contacting you to let you know that I&#39;m still interested in your mentoring.<br>I find it very hard to concentrate on the quizzes you sent me, as I&#39;m deeply at work. <br>


I&#39;m returning home everyday at ~22:00. <br>I also have a family and a small 1 year old child, that needs my attention ;-)<br>I did small part of the test. <br>Do you want me to send you the test as is and we&#39;ll take it few questions at a time, or you need it full?<br>


<br>Have a nice weekend,<br>Kfir<br></div>
</blockquote></div><br>Well,<br>hehe, I&#39;ll send it in private ;-)<br>yep, heavy fingers. <br><br>Kfir <br></div>
