Subject: [gentoo-dev] Willing to support the wxWidgets maintainers if any

1 Hello,
2
3 I am currently developing applications using the great wxWidgets GUI
4 framework and I noticed that the appropriate gentoo packages are not
5 very actively maintained. So I think about contributing either to the
6 maintenance of already existing packages (including the wxWidgets
7 library itself) or to the development of new ebuilds concerning projects
8 which use the wxWidgets library.
9 E.g. some work could be done to support different slots of the wxWidgets
10 library (coexisting release and debug versions and/or coexisting major
11 releases). This might yield to the development of an eselect script
12 allowing to switch from one to an other wxWidgets library version or to
13 switch from the debug to the release version. This is already supported
14 by the wx-config utility tool.
15 I will be grateful to anyone who could help me in my intention to become
16 a gentoo developer or point me to the right place to discuss about.
