    Hi Rob,

    That's good to hear. There's a flourishing Debian community in SF, I thnk
    [I'm in UK] Try: https://wiki.debian.org/LocalGroups#CA_-_California

    The community team is here primarily to make Debian a welcoming place and
    to see that people work well together on mailing lists and IRC.

    If you're developers and new to Debian, you might want the Debian mentors
    list to find out how Debian packages things. Otherwise, there's debian-user
    and debian-devel which is primarily a list for established Debian developers
    / raising technical queries to the developer community as a whole.

    As ever, it's sometimes worth looking over the list archives to find
    out how stuff works - https://www.debian.org/MailingLists/ should give you everything you need to know.

    A couple of small things - please turn off HTML if you're able to and
    try to avoid top posting when replying to lists.

    All the very best, as ever,

    Andy Cater

    [For the community team].

    <div>Please let us know anyway we can be of service.</div>

    <div>&nbsp;</div>

    <div>Thanks,</div>

    In addition to packaging, there are many other ways to help Debian,
    both technical and non-technical, most of them are listed here:
