Pardon me for not being immediately aware of what contribution you are
currently making to Debian. Are you offering to help with Open Hardware?
If so, Please contact its director, Vincent Renardias. I believe he has a
mailing list for the topic, too.

I am currently busy with Netscape and other issues.
