Theoretically I could pick up a package from here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_maintainers_wishlist

Welcome back. I think it is best if we follow the co-maintainership path
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group#B...
Here is how it works:
- I will file a request with FESCo (Fedora Engineering Steering
Committee) to get you sponsored if you agree to accept me as a mentor
- I will add you as a co-maintainer to one of the packages I maintain
in Fedora (in this case, deja-dup, a backup software that is default for Fedora)
- You can prep the update for
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=713402. Feel free to ask any questions or offlist or IRC (my nick is mether in #fedora-india) as necessary
- I will review the changes and you can commit them
- Once you learn enough to be comfortable with the process, you can go
ahead and file review requests for anything else you would like to maintain and I will be happy to suggest more
Let me know what you think
Sounds awesome. I am on it!
