Greetings,
Its good to be on the forum, thanks Paul, and I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you through the blag venue.
I have been using blag for some short time, and have found that I really like it--- becoming my new favorite.
I am wondering if there is a new core group forming up to move the distro forward. I would like to help with that in some way (names in the hat).
Have a great day folks.

kind regards,
marcus777

Right now there's a small core group that's pushing ahead with releases of BLAG. I can't name names because I forget them, but you can check out the announcements to follow the development of BLAG.

Easiest way to help is to report bugs in any packages in the BLAG repos. You could also see if there are new patches for some of the software or newer versions that could be put in the repo as well. You can also suggest packages to include in the next version of BLAG.

A little bit harder task is working on the wiki. This is harder because BLAG is based on Fedora and most of the Fedora wiki will cover what you want to do in BLAG. So you have to dig deeper and see what's different about BLAG that requires explanation. You could write instructions for setting up a BLAG server or using BLAG in a school classroom or whatever.

You could design a theme for the forum, the wiki and the website? They haven't changed their appearance for a while and a new theme may make the information more accessible to users?

Those are just some ideas
