Re: Greetings Linux Hams



Thank you for the response and warm welcome!

That sounds like a very good first step, just never know where to begin.

Also is there any good documentation I should read?

Hi Daniel,

welcome!

Most things we do in the Debian Hams team are actually generic Debian
tasks: packaging, bug triaging, bug fixing. There is also some
documentation as you have seen, but it's not quite the focus.

https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=debian-hams@lists.debian.org

There aren't that many bugs open, but one way to get started could be
to go through some of them and leave "this does no longer/still apply"
notes.

Oh and of course, if you have something that you would like to
package, we are here to help.
