Well, now that I can't claim no knowledge of this... |
22 |
|

Alex is already an arch tester for SPARC, helping test packages and |
24 |
such. He's also interested in joining the Java team and has |
25 |
bootstrapped IcedTea on SPARC. |
26 |
|
27 |
The SPARC team is pretty thin, so he's having a little trouble finding |
28 |
a mentor. armin76 and I have helped him a little with the ebuild quiz, |
29 |
which he has now completed. The ebuild quiz has not been reviewed by |
30 |
anyone to my knowledge. |
31 |
|
32 |
Any volunteers to mentor him? |

Thanks, |
