Could you answer this please? We like to contribute, but we need some 
help to start up. Once we done it right, we can do it ourselves.
If it takes so long all the time, I will loose my interest in 
maintaining packages. Not because I loose my interest in building the 
packages and help to make Debian better for Multimedia, but because the 
costs are not worth it, compared to the time, effort, support and speed 
of the process.

I sit hours in front of my pc to build packages and get it uploaded. And 
support is very minimal. It takes months to get the wiki updated to make 
newbies able to build and upload packages (Free?)!

Also I have uploaded about 5 packages a month ago and only one is 
reviewed and uploaded to Debian. I think DD's have also the 
responsibility to review and upload builded packages as soon as 
possible. And I think it's pretty logic that newbies make some mistakes 
the first time, so yes also the reviews could take some more time, but 
this will improve over time soon...

I don't want to be rude, but I start get irritated by the amount of time 
we spent on it compared to the little help and encouragement we get.
