Hi,

I want to join the QA team and get access to orphaned packages in
salsa git. I want to contribute by fixing them. Would you provide me
access to my salsa ID: yogu

Thank you,
Yogeswaran.

Orphaned packages on salsa live under the debian/ group, so being a member
of the QA team on salsa doesn't really help much.

Membership of the debian group is granted to Debian developers, and
IIUC on a repository-by-repository basis to non-DDs. The
best way to get started is probably to contribute patches/MRs and
get review from DDs - you may want to ping here if there
are no responses to those (which is probably common with orphaned packages).

https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/Join has some more ideas what and how
to do them.
