About the time of the hamm release, so not too long actually. I've been
a Debian user for a year as of a couple days ago and I was active in
-devel before I became a developer. In fact, I knew in January that I
wanted to become a developer. I was attracted by the social contract and
the DFSG.

epic4, epic4-help, mikmod, asclassic, and I've picked up svgatextmode but
haven't really done much to/with it yet. I'm involved with a few other
projects such as the QPL license which I pretty much rewrote between .90
and .91, though this is really only Debian-related.

Far too many to list! Oh, you mean the bugs that are my responsibility,
not upstream bugs. => Let's see..
svgatextmode has a handful of them, none release critical and a
number of them are forwarded.
epic4 has a wishlist bug which is waiting on hop (upstream author) to
provide his opinion on the matter.
asclassic needs to be recompiled with a few minor packaging chnages.
I haven't been giving it the attention it deserves because of
problems I am having with X itself. Branden is working on the
problems, I haven't had time to dig into the guts much
mikmod has a bug that it depends on too many libs which I'm planning
to fix before release by splitting off an alsa/esd version from the
package which would just be open sound system. It has a bug that it
needs recompiling with potato libraries, but I am not currently
running potato as I am still working with slink. (f someone running
potato wants to NMU it with the correct alsalib, please feel free)
