Nice to hear that this information brings new readers to our mailing
list.

Usually we do not set any schedule to our sprints but rather do things
"at request". In past real life sprints it sometimes happened that some
people who were in need of some basic packaging training assembled in
a separate toom and I was demonstrating packaging on one example (which
is my favourite way to teach packaging). This happened simply when we
all were in the mood for this (most sensibly at the beginning of the
sprint). ;-)
My idea how to implement this scheme in a virtual sprint is that once
we have met on Thursday morning in a video conference we simply ask who
might have interest. Its probably also a very good idea if you simply
put your name into the wiki under a topic "needs packaging training".
So we can gather some people here.
In any case I strongly recommend to have a look at our Mentoring of the
month Wiki[1]. Here you get introduction links and everything that
might be needed to get some kickstart.
Hope this helps
Andreas.
PS: I'll soon announce our "regular" bi-monthly Debian Med video
meeting for today. Feel free to also join there to get some
first touch to some attendees (even if I will not make it
personally today).
