| Sometimes its not a matter of being ignored, its a matter of time |

| 9 |
| devs to take on every new piece of software while still properly |
| 10 |

Hi, I'm a new dev, media-video is my herd. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
| I also have some ebuilds idling in bugzilla, but priorities lie |
| 15 |
| with making sure existing packages are performing as intended, and |
| 16 |
| bugs are being handled in an effective manner for said packges. |
| 17 |
| Taking on a new package is ineveitably increasing the demands of |
| 18 |
| the often (if not always) strained developer. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Watch me take this package. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
| On a side note, you could always utilize the proper channels to |
| 23 |
| become a dev... Even if you only maintain your own packages, it |
| 24 |
| would hopefully ensure that those packages are of the highest |
| 25 |
| quality, and squashing a few bugs on the side never hurts :) |
| 26 |

And now, I'm maintainer of this package should it be accepted and |
| 30 |
after possible cleanup. Please report to me of any version bumps and |
| 31 |
I'll try and handle them asap (as I'm in so many mailing lists right |
| 32 |
now, I'm not quite sure I can take another one on, but I'll try :). |
| 33 |
This may belong to media-gfx and not media-video herd, in the case |
| 34 |
that something arrises, I'll try and work with them in letting me |
| 35 |
mantain it. Thanks for the bug postings! |
