[Pkg-shadow-devel] IRC communication

[Christian Perrier]

It finally turned out that Tomasz created the #shadow channel on
freenode.

Martin (emptty), Nicolas (nekral) and I (bubulle) have already joined
Tomas (kloczek). We're just missing you, Alexander.

BTS, you'll be glad to learn that I'm currently trying to push out the
same concepts and work methods we're currently using to maintain
shadow for the maintenance of the samba packages.

The situation there is slightly different=A0: Eloy Paris maintains the
package for a long time and is still as active as possible. Steve
Langasek, our beloved Release Manager, co-maintains the package but is
less involved in the use of the software in his new work...and is of
course overwhelmed by the release work.

I just finally joined them and indeed made my first samba upload
yesterday, just after uploading shadow 4.0.3-31sarge5...:-). There
also for a release critical issue....

We are securing a closer work with upstream, currently.

So, if you hear about people interested in team work for the samba
packages, feel free to point them to us.
