On February 10th, I was accepted as a Gentoo developer. Look for me doing lots of helpful things for the GDP.

Many thanks to kloeri for patience and setting me up behind the scenes, and for fielding a lot of newbie questions about being a dev, and all that. And to dsd for creating this awesome planet.g.o space for me. And, of course, to fox2mike, my highly esteemed mentor. :)

Thanks to ALL the devs on #gentoo-doc for helping me get here; every one of you has been a mentor to me in some way. It's been quite a journey since May 2005 when I first discovered this realm called "IRC" and signed on to #-doc to see what interesting things were happening.

It'll be a fun time, especially with 2006.0 approaching. I'm already extremely busy patching docs, fixing bugs, and so on. Did I mention I love being able to do my own bugfixes and commits? I really enjoy rapid problem solving.

Here's to many more patches, fixes, and commits in the future. It's great to be aboard!
