Hi,

you can also find more information on the Debian wiki:
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia

I recommend you to join a team for structuring your contributions to Debian.
Your time is precious. In a team, you can benefit from the experience of the
other members in order to decide where your work will be the most useful. In
particular, if you consider working on a package that looks unmaintained, I
recommend to think twice whether it would not be better to remove the package
rather than fixing its bugs.

Have a nice day,
