Hello,

I have a need for py-qt to ultimately get to a native salome 6.5. I see
it is not maintained presently, and am interested in taking ownership.
I've been using FreeBSD for so long I figure I should start helping out
where I can.

I know the latest version of py-qt (4.10) builds against my current
system, so I do not think it would be hard to get going considering the
old version is about to expire. 

I do not know what I would need to do to become a maintainer but I
figure this is the first step. I will read the docs more in depth
though. Not sure if it would be possible to have an @freebsd.org email
address, but that would be cool. I'd be interested in helping out other
places of the organization too, but I'm not much of a coder. This is a
skill I very much need to learn though. 

I've been using the system since 5.4 as my main OS, and have gotten good
at making it work without much help. Love me some beastie, want to help
make it keep going.


Let me know if I can help.


Brian
