Have you found the Proxy Maintainers project via |
| 15 |
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Proxy_Maintainers yet? |

Your best bet is probably to log into Freenode IRC and meet the other |
| 18 |
devs, get settled in, try your hand at some ebuilds, etc and then you |
| 19 |
can get a feel for what goes on. Someone will then pick you up, and take |
| 20 |
you forward. |
