This is just a manner of speaking. = D<\/p>\n
May 27, 2013. I officially became a packer on Mageia<\/a>, Mandriva-based Linux distro. The date marks the creation of an account<\/a> with access permission to repository and build system for me.<\/p>\n I started contributing to Mageia since the early days of the project, translating the manifesto to Portuguese<\/a>. Since then I helped on forums, IRC, mailing lists, got mirrors with high performance in Brazil, and did more work in promotion. However, I wanted to provide software for Mageia, because this is a job who not everyone can contribute.<\/p>\n To become a packers I had to participate in a mentoring program<\/a> where I was guided by my Portuguese friend Jos\u00e9 Jorge or zezinho. I learned a lot about the art of creating RPM packages. Thanks zezinho!<\/p>\n I’m packing SWI-Prolog<\/a> and abnTeX2<\/a>. I intend to maintain some scientific-related software and KDE stuff like themes and plasma applets.<\/p>\n Well, this is my way to contribute to free software.
