Some of you know I've been *very* hesitant to do this, exactly for the reasons Jose pointed out. So, thanks a lot for the +1's and sorry for the wasted time and bandwidth but I think this thread should die peacefully now. Thanks+see you guys on IRC.

It's a bit sad to see that you've withdrawn your application already. But to be honest we need more help to understand your motivation and the background for your offer. Keep in mind that getting opt access means to become an official CRUX maintainer. The usual questions that ever people beeing ask in this context will raise are something like: - How long do you use CRUX? - Why CRUX and not distro XYZ? - What are your special interest with regard to ports, e.g. DE ports? - Do you have special programming skills? - Do you have other areas beyond ports you would like to help? - ... Thanks and best regards Juergen
