Hi Ian,

Short intro: I'm a long time Fedora contributer and a sponsor. I haven't been
sponsoring anyone in a while as I've been rather busy with other stuff. But
getting new people into Fedora is important so I've decided to make some time
for sponsering again. As such I would like to sponsor you. The first step here
would be to finish up the packaging of dzcomm and scantool_net so that they are
in a state where they can be approved. The next step then is for you to either
package one or two more packages, for example from these lists:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/WishList
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Games/WishList

Or you can do some reviews of other people packages, when you do this please add
a note that it is not an official review as you aren't a contributer yet.

The purpose here is for you to show a good understanding of the packaging
guidelines. Once you've done a couple of good reviews and / or submitted one or
two more good packages, then you can apply for cvsextras membership in the
account system and I'll sponsor you.

---

For starters I would like to give you a hand with fixing some of the issues with
this package (dzcomm), as you're running into some issues which can be somewhat
hard to fix for someone new to packaging, and on top of that this package should
really be building a shared library not a static library as static libraries are
evil, which will require some further patching of the Makefiles.

However before I start spending time on this I would first like to get a firm
commitment from your side, are you willing to make time for this to make this
work, if there will be a silence of 2 weeks between comments all the time, then
this is not going to work.
