Sure, my recollection is that gregkh (Greg Kroah-Hartman) loves to work |
16 |
with new kernel contributors, and he's a Gentoo dev among other things. |

He's best reached by email, as he's not on IRC regularly. |

Another option is Mike Frysinger (vapier), as he also contributes a fair |
20 |
bit upstream. Let me know if either of those people work out for you, |
21 |
and if they don't, I'm sure we can think of some more. Those are just |
22 |
the names that came to the top of my mind. |
