[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#811377: Adopting Sysvinit

[Dmitrii Kashin]

Hello everyone.

I've noticed that your team is looking for new people.

My bash skills are quite good (at the level of ABS, and living in
terminal only for about last 5 years). I use C, Perl, Ocaml and Scheme
(Racket) in my work.

I'm not a very experienced with maintaining of debian packages, but I
have a big experience in centos packaging, and do it every day on my
job. Really love sysvinit, and wanna do my best to assist you with
decreasing the number of opened bugs: I've already looked through them
and think I can fix some of them every weekend.


But I need some help.

I tought that `apt-get source', dephelper and quilt to make patches
would be enough. But now at Alioth I revealed you use an svn repository:
svn://scm.alioth.debian.org/svn/pkg-sysvinit/

What would be the right way: send here patches made by quilt and ask you
to accept them, or download the svn's trunk and make patches there? And
then send them here too?

I understand that I'm a newbie here and I won't be able to commit
changes directly. Who could be the sponsor for my changes?


I'd like to start with #764662 and #435287. They seem to be quite easy
to fix, and I hardly have a chance to break something with them.


Sincerely yours, Dmitrii Kashin.
