> Hi,
>
> [First of all, sorry for cross posting to different lists]
>
> We are planning to conduct IRC sessions on Introduction to Debian
> Packaging starting this Saturday (28th November, 2015). The idea is to get
> people interested in contributing to Debian, by packaging the free
> softwares they use and love.
>
> For learning purpose, we would be dealing with the packaging of Ruby gems
> that are needed to get two awesome free softwares into Debian - Diaspora
> and GitLab. We can also discuss about packaging other stuff, like softwares
> written in other languages, fonts etc once we are familiar with the basic
> concepts. We would be logging the session for future references and the
> logs would be made publicly accessible.
>
> The details of the sessions are given below:
>
> *Time:* 10:00 PM IST to 12:30 AM IST (May extend to about half hour based
> on the situation of the session)
> *Server:* irc.oftc.net
> *Channel*: #debian-diaspora
> *Requirements:  *
> 1. OS - Debian GNU/Linux preferred (Can handle even with Debian
> derivatives like Ubuntu). It would be better to have Debian Testing (Debian
> Jessie is also acceptable, but you may have to install newer versions of
> some packages) installed.
> 2. Working internet connection
> 3. Mind to learn and ask questions.
>
> *Note: *If you are new to IRC, use this link http://webchat.oftc.net
>
> So everyone interested to learn packaging and contribute to free software,
> do come online in IRC (and please be on time. :D ). Also, share this
> information widely and ask your peers to do the same.
>
> Happy Hacking. :)
