My name is Perry,
I wanted to request to join the debian python team. In a previous email, I
shared that I have been using debian for a while now and at this point in
time I want to contribute back to the project. One of my skills is writing
scripts in python, and I want to utilize and build upon this skill in
contributing back to debian.

I have read, understand, and accept the debian python team policy.

You should really not share your password like that (this is a public 
mailing list after all).
Furthermore I would advice changing this (and similar passwords) in all 
services where you use it.

Aside from a password reset, I'd recommend getting started by
contributing patches through the bug tracking system, or adopting some
orphaned packages, and getting some experience maintaining them. Ideally
finding some mentors to help you out, along the way.

We don't generally give people who are brand new to contributing to the
project commit access to hundreds of packages.

Hi Stefano,
thanks for the advice, I'll definitely take a look into patching and
orphaned packages. As far as mentoring how would I go about doing that?
finding one that is.

I'd say post upload requests to the debian-mentors lists, or patches to bugs.
There's a freeze coming up soon, so RC bugs are especially valuable to
fix.

I'm afraid this path often isn't easy. It's definitely one of Debian's
weaker areas, but with good work and persistence you should be able to
get some uploads done.
