The problem is that we get a lot of mails like this. Gentoo does not work like a school were someone educates you from the start. The way the process works is that we pick up people who have been doing good work for a while and ask them take the quizzes. Probably the best material for learning is http://devmanual.gentoo.org. For looking things to do look into http://bugs.gentoo.org and probably #gentoo-bugs on bugdays. Regards, Petteri
