Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
as nattfodd and ehmsen won't be working on TeX for Gentoo anymore, we |
| 4 |
need one or more new maintainer/s. Primary goal is to bring a working |
| 5 |
ebuild of TeXLive 2007 into Portage, as the current used and working |
| 6 |
one (teTeX) is dead upstream. There is an effort of a user [1] which |
| 7 |
could be a base. Non-devs welcome as long as they do all the |
| 8 |
work. First start can be that I proxy (= You do all the work, I get |
| 9 |
the glamour for committing :) a willing and capable user, recruiting |
| 10 |
him can come later on. |
| 11 |
Just email me, Gentoo Army needs you. |

- TeX knowledge (but not just using, you should know how to handle |
| 15 |
formats) |
| 16 |
- Makefiles should be no secret to you |
| 17 |
- fast computer (compile time is baaad) |
| 18 |
- high tolerance against frustration |
| 19 |
- knowledge about Gentoo's current TeX system, ebuildism can be handled |
| 20 |
by me |

- a warm feeling because you help so many people |
| 24 |
- a beer/whatever_you_prefer from me when we meet in person |
| 25 |
- a first step into a great community (it is |
| 26 |
after all) |
| 27 |
- a build system maybe only you will understand after digging into if |
| 28 |
for months without social contacts |
