Self-introduction: Marek Mahiut

[Marek Mahut]

Hello all!

Just a quick self-introduction. My name is Marek Mahut and I want to
help you to build/maintain the EPEL project. I already committed my
packages /2 :-)/ into EPEL trees. At daily basis (at work), I'm dealing
with problems and maintenance of about 1000 RHEL4/5 stations and I find
EPEL project very useful.

Any questions are welcome.

Welcome Marek!

In case you (or others interested in EPEL) looks for something to work
on: it could be nice if somebody could look over the EPEL wishlist
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/WishList , check if the Fedora might
be interested in EPEL and pick up a package or two (or more ;-) ) for EPEL.

Ohh, and there are some pacakge in FC6 which are not part of EPEL; see
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#head-f1c2fc524be33cdc730200379a3814c3...
Some of them would be nice to have in EPEL, too.

Note, I'm not sure if both lists are fully up2date; getting it up2date
and cleaned up would be yet another task for a volunteer with some spare
cycles ;-)

Has been the letter asking maintainers to branch their packages for EPEL
 sent for packages listed on EPEL/WishList?

Don't think so. But the template-letter might need some small
adjustments if you'd use it for this purpose.

Note that we should avoid sending mails "would you be filling to
maintain foo in EPEL" to people multiple times. People that stated to
not participate in EPEL should not be poked either.

Feel free to enhance the wiki pages if needed.
