christopher's notes

I can take Arch more seriously

I think I want to become an Arch Linux Package Maintainer.

Being an active open source contributor is part of my values, and I want to look for more ways to live that out. I understand how Arch packages work pretty well, though I don't actively maintain any AUR packages right now.

I'm not exactly sure how to find packages to maintain - I am not very excited about maintaining packages I don't use, and pretty much everything I do use has a maintainer. But maybe I should just look around a bit more. Surely there are things I can pick up here and there.

Well, I have yet to truly commit to this goal. But I've been thinking about it, so I thought I should write it down. We'll see what happens!
