Mageia invites you to become a distribution packager

Packaging software involves taking the source code from the upstream developer and turning it into something that is easy for end users to manage. This involves ensuring that the package has all the dependencies it needs both to be built, run properly and installed in the Mageia ecosystem. This is done by writing a specification file that is used as a recipe to build an installable rpm package.

If there is an application that interests you, or if you want to help maintain a part of the distribution, there are many opportunities to do so with the packaging team.

So, if you want to log in and get involved, the next step is to create a Mageia account and follow the guide here . There are also mailing lists and IRC channels (# mageia-dev) if you want to ask questions.

Good luck!.
