Bug#1114514: RFH: cinnamon -- Innovative and comfortable desktop
I'd like to help with this. I am a Bookworm w/Cinnamon user and have
some experience supporting APIs/SDKs professionally. Currently, I'm
"semi-retired" and doing well keeping myself occupied.
I've never volunteered like this before, but have 15+ years of Linux
and programming experience. I'd be happy to assist as best I could.
Thanks,
Cliff
