Maybe you received other replies off-list, but in case you did not, I would do something like this: 1. subscribe to http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm 2. send an introduction email like the one you sent here 3. lurk on the list, and ask interesting questions 4. offer to help testing some patches and improve them where you can If someone is sending patches (that may need testing), they are normally keen on getting feedback. Any testing/reviewing you can do will help and ask the posters if you have questions about it.
