Sure, I don't mind. Where/how do I sign up to be the maintainer of cronie?
To get a maintainer of a component depends on how the maintership of the particular software piece is organized. As cron has an active maintainer I would expect you contribute and by this show your comitment and then the current maintainer might share the position with you. But this depends on the particular software component. As I've not worked on cron you must discuss this with the maintainer(s) of the component. With Samba for example I would expect some upstream activity and some active contribution to our packages. With cron this might be different. I expect it's not this simple as you might have guessed based on my reply. Cheers, Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team + SUSE Labs SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany
