hi cookers,

in order to decrease the list of orphan packages (orphan-as-in-without-
maintainer), i'm launching a campaign. there's nothing to gain, other
than the warm feeling that you're helping the community.

to participate, that's easy:
- have a look at 
  http://maintainers.mandriva.com/listpkgs.php?scount=4000&owner=1
- try to find some package(s) that you are using frequently, or even
  better that you work on as developper / translator / etc
- if you're already a mandriva contributor, grab it!
- if you're not a mandriva contributor, please reply to this list by
  saying that you would like to become one, with the package(s) that you
  want to adopt. we will try to see whether we can find some mentor for
  you.

don't hesitate, even if you've never done any rpm packaging: working on
an existant package will really ease your learning! it's a perfect
opportunity to move from tester to packager!

thanks,
jérôme
