1 Hi All,
2
3 My name is Viktar and I'm an experienced Java developer. I'm using Gentoo
4 as my primary system for a past 5-6 years, so I do know a little bit about
5 it. I even tried to become a Gentoo Dev, but due to lack of time haven't
6 completed training course. That's it for introduction.
7
8 I feel really sorry for Gentoo Java project not having appropriate
9 attention and I'm volunteering to help solving most important and critical
10 issues as a proxy maintainer. Please let me know who I should coordinate
11 with.
12
13 Thanks,
14 Viktar
